The Horizon Foundation is donating $1 million in grants to various Howard County health institutions and organizations that are working during the coronavirus pandemic.

Howard County General Hospital is receiving the largest grant of $500,000. This grant will go toward keeping all “frontline health care workers safe, housed and fed” during the pandemic, as well as providing technology to patients so they can be in touch with loved ones, according to a Monday news release. “Our team is working tirelessly to care for patients and this new gift will allow us to better support our staff on the front lines, especially as we prepare for a surge of patients in coming weeks,” Steve Snelgrove, president of Howard County General Hospital, said in a statement.

“They are our heroes, and we want to make sure they have the support they need to continue to care for patients.”
