Beginning in March 2023, the Mitten Phone Chapter began offering small grants as a result of our fund-raising efforts. The purpose of the grant money is to purchase items that will increase independence for our members who are blind and visually impaired. If you are a member in good standing of the Mitten Phone Chapter and wish to apply for a grant, complete the Google form on this page or the Word application available at
michiganmittens.net. Our grant committee will consider your application and notify you within 30 days of the status of your application. If it is accepted, our treasurer will send you a check for the amount you requested, but no more than $200.00. You will then submit a copy of your purchased item receipt to our treasurer within 60 days. The Grant committee will accept applications each year from January through November 10th.
If you have questions or wish to apply by phone, call Diane Scalzi at(313) 744-3488.
