Quincy Service League is proud to announce that it awarded a total of $25,500 to over 31 Adams County Organizations and 5 area high school seniors. Quincy Service League is a service organization that was founded 71 years ago in Quincy. The money is raised exclusively through the Holiday Gift Show that is held at Quincy High School in November.
With these grants, Quincy Service League helps meet the needs of the elderly and children, the physically and mentally handicapped, and of the community by addressing related health and safety issues and supporting historical and cultural enrichment.
