The York Children's Foundation of Houston, Texas is pleased to announce that a grant in the amount of $1,000 has been awarded to the Little League Baseball, Inc. - Clinton LL of Clinton, Missouri. The organization was nominated by Consalus-Bradley Funeral Home, also of Clinton.
The York Children's Foundation began January 1st, 1992, as a joint project of The York Group of Houston, Texas, and the York Distributors Association. Each time a York casket is sold, and the funeral director returns a registration card, York and the distributor who sold the casket match donations to the foundation. Funeral Directors across the country nominate organizations who spend at least 50% of their time and resources helping children in their communities. Each quarter, a Board of Trustees, made up of funeral directors and distributors, select the most worthy nominees to receive the grants.
Since 1992, The York Children's Foundation has donated over $1.8 million in grants to over 800 organizations throughout the United States. Artco Casket Co., Inc. of Lenexa, Kansas, is the York Distributor who co-sponsored this nomination. The sales representatives of Artco Casket Company have assisted their customers and friends in obtaining over $400,000 in donations for organizations in the Midwest over the past twelve years.
