There is more help on the way to needy families this long, cold winter.
The Rhode Island Foundation has awarded emergency grants to help keep families warm and fed through the winter.
The Foundation's CEO says non-profits are dealing with record demand as everyday costs continue to rise.
Connecting for Child and Families in Woonsocket, the Salvation Army, and WARM Shelter in Westerly have all received about fifty-thousand-dollars.
