Corry Area Historical Society President Anne Clark and Corry Community Foundation (CCF) Executive Assistant Shelby Scouten gave a presentation as Scouten announced the donation amounts to each non-profit organization in the Corry area.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to thank everyone who donated as Erie Gives overall had a record breaking year of over $12 million in total,\u201d said Scouten. \u201cIn Corry, donations amounted to over $370,000. Since 2014, the total donations in Corry have amounted to $2,399,243 which is amazing. This year donations are being matched to 31 cents on the dollar.\u201d<\/p>\n
Clark also spoke on how donations to the Corry Area Historical Society keep the museum going and allows them to keep adding to their collection of local history.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe donations have allowed us to have our museum open to the public, and accumulate many items over the years, along with our Climax locomotive and our extensive archive room that holds nearly 500,000 articles documenting the history of our area. I want to thank everyone who donated to the local organizations this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
