Nearly $55,000 will be distributed to organizations throughout Centre County this month.

Centre Foundation announced $54,000 will support field of interest funds.

Carrie Ryan, Deputy Director of Centre County, said this is about the 30th year for the grant program and it’s annual assistance many local organizations depend on.

“On an annual basis we’ve done that for a long time so it’s hundreds of thousands of dollars that come back in the community to the organizations that need it most at the end of the year,” Ryan said.

The funding will be distributed to all 25 organizations by the end of December.
