The Gloucester Mathews Care Clinic received a $1,000 community grant from Walmart Store #1759 in Gloucester.
Store manager Rick Heston presented the donation to GMCC executive Arlene Armentor. Walmart local community grants are awarded through an open application process and provide funding directly from Walmart and Sam’s Club facilities to local organizations across the U.S.
“(Walmart store #1759) has provided material and financial support for GMCC consistently over the years,” said Armentor. “Last year, we received a gift of pharmacy refrigerators, which were much needed.
