Beatitude House gets $2,500 grant from Youngstown/Mahoning Valley United Way

YOUNGSTOWN — Beatitude House has received $2,500 grant form the Youngstown/Mahoning Valley United Way to fund summer camp attendance for the children served by Beatitude House programs.

This is the second year United Way has provided this opportunity for the disadvantaged children living at Beatitude House.

Currently, children are attending the weeklong Leadership, Education Arts and Play camp in Villa Maria, Pa

Promise Peace is the primary theme camp, where participants learn to get along with one another and handle conflict in a positive way. A new emphasis on multicultural appreciation brings trained leaders to work the children through games and awareness activities.

Beatitude House serves disadvantaged women and children in the Mahoning Valley.
