The total funding for projects for the year 2017 was $75,000, split between local companies E Ink, EMD Serono, and Parexel.  Following application review, there were 16 projects funded.  One of these was On The Move, Inc.

ClearMotion, Inc. donated bikes and books (requested by the children) in 2019,  which they were delighted to deliver in person!  In 2020, they also purchased and dropped off (due to Covid-19 restrictions), requested books (by the children) for the holiday season.

Recognizing the educational challenge faced by teachers and reading specialists,  Representative Lombardo secured substantial state funding for OTMINC in the years 2018, 2019, and 2020,  which was allocated solely for purchasing books, e-Readers, Chromebooks and multiple boxes of supplies within the Town of Billerica.  These funds were utilized for purchases to help bridge the Summer Gap.
