This isn't exactly a clerk/finance question, but I wasn't sure where else to ask it -- my apologies if there is a better place.

A few years back, we had a program where we could find a deserving local non-profit and submit a request for the church to make a donation to them. The amount was up to $500 for a while and was even up to $1000 at one point. I have no idea if this was some local/Stake/Area test thing or if it was more widespread. Does anyone remember this and, if so, know if it still exists?

This was something which stake presidents could request through their area authority. Don't know if it is still a program or not.
