Women's Fund El Dorado members selected the Upper Room Dining Hall Placerville California (URDH) as the first Multi Year Grant recipient. The $50,000 grant will be used to serve more individuals and families by implementing a Mobile Meal Program, giving the "URDH" to be “where we need to be when we need to be there.” The "URDH" previously raised funds to purchase a new Ford F59 truck. The WFED grant will be used in the coming months to build out the kitchen in their new food truck which will be in operation in 2025.
