Hello All,



While researching Foundations for possible funding of
ACB National's services, I sometimes come across foundations that 
are a good
match for us but only fund programs in their primary communities 
where their
employees live.  One such foundation is the MetLife Foundation 
whose website
address is



http://www.metlife.com/about/corporate-profile/citizenship/metlif
e-foundatio
n/index.html



Metlife's presence is strongest in the Hartford, CT and the 
Philadelphia, PA
areas.  They will support health related programs and programs 
that get
older folks and kids involved in leadership and/or volunteering.  
If your
affiliate has a program needing funding, and is looking for 
foundation
support, you might want to check out this Foundation.



Also, if you have any questions about your eligibility to apply 
for
foundation support, or would like help with putting a proposal 
together,
feel free to contact me.



Thanks, and have a great day!
