$2 million donation to help local nonprofits

WETM-2 TV reported that several local nonprofit organizations will receive a substantial financial boost, thanks to the generosity and foresight of an anonymous donor. In all, eight organizations and programs will equally share a more than $2-million bequest from an individual estate, each receiving about $250,000.

Some of the local beneficiaries include 171 Cedar Arts Center, United Way of the Southern Tier, Southern Tier Hospice, and the Southeast Steuben County Library. The organizations respect the donor's desire to remain anonymous, yet wish to publicly acknowledge the generous act.
