On Monday morning’s “Valley Navel Gazing,” reporters talked to “grant gal” Valerie Knight-DiGangi, a program officer with the Valley Community Foundation, about “grant season” for local nonprofits.
Then state Rep. Jason Perillo, R‑Shelton, came on the air to talk about a recent organizational shakeup at Valley Emergency Medical Services, the lower Valley’s nonprofit paramedic service.
The complete episode is embedded below. Knight-DiGangi’s interview starts at about the five-minute mark. Perillo’s interview starts about 30 minutes in.
VCF officials are hosting a forum in February about their grant process. It is scheduled for Feb. 3 from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Derby Public Library, 313 Elizabeth St. in Derby. Click here for a previous release on the forum from the VCF.
Reporters Eugene Driscoll and Ethan Fry also review the top five most popular stories from last week; this week in history (a real doozy!) and Driscoll talks about a seminar he attended last week at the Poynter Institute in Florida.
