A recent $10,000 grant from the MutualOne Charitable Foundation will be used to enhance community assistance programs provided by The Salvation Army Framingham Corps.

According to Major Wendy Kountz, Commanding Officer of the Framingham Corps, the funds will be used to support their food insecurity program, provide for the needs of new mothers, and rental assistance to veterans, seniors and low-income residents.

“We believe in supporting programs that address the immediate needs of those around us,” said Steven M. Sousa, executive vice president and chief operating officer of MutualOne Bank and a MutualOne Charitable Foundation trustee. “The Salvation Army is a great example of what can be done to build a stronger community.”
