Funding for smaller kitchen-related projects at Aging sites comes from the current budgets of specific sites, without a separate allocated pot of money.
- Projects are funded as needs arise, based on the specific site's current budget.
- This approach allows for the replacement of refrigerators, ovens, and similar equipment.
- The program operates in a self-funded manner due to the lack of a dedicated funding pool.
- Original budget plans do not forecast kitchen needs, highlighting a reactive rather than a proactive funding strategy.
