LISC looking to help fix up area football fields

The group working to revitalize Peoria’s struggling neighborhoods hopes to help school districts or community groups improve their football fields. Peoria’s Local Initiatives Support Corporation, or LISC, is partnering with the NFL Foundation to award up to 200-thousand-dollars in matching grants to fix-up football fields in rough condition. Area school districts and non-profit groups need to submit proposals for the funds by the end of March.
