Meghan Connell, President of the Skaggs Foundation, announces last week on KRZK's Ozarks Now Program that the Foundation is assisting families that have been impacted by COVID and forced to travel for hospitalization with Gas Cards to assist with travel costs.

Connell and Community Relations Director Mindy Honey also talked about the scholarships and grants that they have been able to provide over the years plus the Vision Screening Equipment they have been able to provide to all the schools in Stone and Taney Counties.
