The Michael Bryant Memorial Fund recently awarded grants to special needs individuals and organizations in Wayne County.  This is the second year that the Fund has awarded such grants. The Fund is used to provide non-traditional funding for special needs individuals in Wayne County.  Because of the generosity of Michael’s family and friends the fund is growing permitting larger grant amounts to the many agencies and individuals who apply.   The Fund in Association with the Wayne County Community Foundation awarded four grants this year.  The winners were as follows:  The Dyberry Day Camp; Susan Herrick, Music Therapist for the Wallenpaupack Area School District; Michael Phillips (in association with Wayne County MH/MR); and Alana Beusse  (in association with Wayne County MH/MR).
