“These grants empower and help well-deserving nonprofit organizations address critical hardships in our local communities, assist those in need and help make a difference in many people’s lives,” said Tegna President Dave Lougee.
The grant recipients are identified by each station, then chosen by the GM and foundation board, with the amount varying by need.
