In 2018, MOUM contributed more than $25,000 in community funding to four local health education programs: <strong>Doors of Hope Transition Ministries<\/strong>, <strong>Oxford Community Market<\/strong>, <strong>Oxford School District<\/strong>, and <strong>Run Oxford<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funding decisions were made by MOUM\u2019s eight board members: John Currence, <strong>John T. Edge<\/strong>, <strong>Robyn Tannehill<\/strong>, <strong>Mac Nichols<\/strong>, <strong>Kelly English<\/strong>, <strong>Afton Thomas<\/strong>, <strong>Eleanor Green<\/strong>, and <strong>Janae Owens<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MOUM looks forward to championing more quality programs in 2019\u20132020. Any Lafayette County nonprofit organization, public school, government entity, or program sponsored by a qualifying organization and working to positively impact local residents\u2019 health is eligible to submit a proposal to the foundation\u2019s competitive grant process on or before March 1, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MOUM is especially interested in applicants whose programs are intentionally inclusive, provide measurable results, and focus on area<br> children and families. Through this cycle, the foundation hopes to continue to reach even further into Lafayette County and support organizations who feel their impact may go unnoticed in Oxford city limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Application materials can be requested by emailing the project manager at<br> grants@moveonupms.org.
