In December, the executive director of the Community Health Foundation of Greater Petaluma announced that despite the difficult financial climate, she hoped that it would award $125,000 in grants to non-profit organizations in 2010.

Lo and behold, on April 22, the CHF awarded a combined total of $125,550 to 17 local organizations at its second annual community celebration, at the Petaluma Woman's Club.
