STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. - Friends of Disabled Adults and Children has been named the winner of two “2018 Collaborative Innovation Grants” totaling $80,000. FODAC will use the funds to create new partnerships with Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and Goodwill Industries of North Georgia. The “Hospital to home support keeps children with disabilities moving” program with Children's Healthcare will help to ensure that children hospitalized for a severe injury or illness can acquire the DME needed for home recovery. The “Expand recycling and access to home medical equipment” program with Goodwill will establish 10 new locations for collecting DME donations. The annual “Collaborative Innovation Grant” is an invite-only competition for nonprofits in the Building Community Network led by the Georgia Center for Nonprofits and The Home Depot Foundation. The network is a collective of nonprofit leadership, bringing together 200-plus Atlanta-area organizations.
