EPX receives DCED Grant

Late last year, Christmas Eve day to be exact, EPX filed for a Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) grant with the help of Senator Vincent J. Fumo and his dedicated staff. Congratulations are now in order because EPX has received written confirmation, from the DCED, that our proposed funding will be granted. The actual contract and check have not arrived and may be up to 18 weeks in coming, BUT we are now assured that the hard work of our grant writers will come to fruition. The primary focus of the grant will most likely be the “greening” of Neumann- Goretti High School. However, review of the specific wording of the grant contract may allow for additional beautification projects. The grant will be administered by EPX Co-Chair and author Joseph F. Marino along with Treasurer Millie Ruffino.
