A local nonprofit group that has been under federal investigation has now sold its church.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A local nonprofit group that has been under federal investigation has now sold its church, which was at the center of a controversy after the group used part of a $750,000 grant from the Municipality of Anchorage to buy that church.
RACS was awarded a $750,000 ARPA grant from the municipality in December 2021. ARPA is a federal COVID-19 relief program. RACS’s president, Prince Nwankudu, told Assembly members the grant would go towards repairing a barn in South Anchorage, which the nonprofit was using as a makeshift food pantry at the time.
