FRAMINGHAM The MutualOne Charitable Foundation has announced a $7,000 grant to support the Local Initiative for Family Empowerment (LIFE) program at Family Promise MetroWest.

The LIFE program is a homelessness prevention program supporting families with children who are not yet homeless, but are at risk of eviction, said Executive Director Sue Crossley.

“Early intervention is the best way to combat homelessness,” said Chair of the Foundation Mark Haranas. “The LIFE program provides subsidies to pay rent in arrears and advocacy with the landlord. We are glad to offer our support.”

Established in 1998 as the philanthropic arm of MutualOne Bank, the MutualOne Charitable Foundation has since donated over $4.8 million to charitable, educational, and civic initiatives that improve and enrich the quality of life in Framingham, Natick, and surrounding communities.
