Metro Council’s Neighborhood Development Fund approved a $12,000 award to South Louisville Community Ministries (SLCM) for its Families Helping Families 50th Anniversary dinner at The Olmsted on April 8, 2025. The grant will reimburse venue rental and catering by Masterson’s Catering, as well as event production costs including A/V equipment, invitations, and labor. Detailed expenses include $650 for room rental, $8,250 for catering, $1,435 for audio/visual setup, $915 for printing and signage, and $750 for labor. SLCM confirms that no portion of the funds will be passed to sub-grantees and that Metro Council branding and acknowledgment will be included in event materials. The award supports SLCM’s ongoing mission to provide emergency assistance and holistic community services to South Louisville residents in crisis.
