The Pilot Club of Prattville received a matching Grant from Pilot International for a project entitled, Sensory Bags for City of Prattville’s Advance Life Saving Transport Vehicles. Through this grant, the Pilot Club of Prattville received $1,325 and will match this amount to fund their project to benefit the Prattville Fire Department and constituents with Autism Spectrum Disorder they may encounter.
