The Cleveland Foundation board of directors has announced $24.8 million in grants approved in the first quarter, supporting a variety of initiatives — including those aimed at safer homes, more equitable access to green space, cleaner water and improved adult literacy — for residents in Cuyahoga, Lake and Geauga counties.

One of the largest grants was given to Youth Opportunities Unlimited for $450,000.

The grant "will allow Y.O.U. to continue to administer (its) summer youth employment program for nearly 12,000 Cuyahoga County teens and young adults, while securing an additional 500 jobs by summer 2022."
