The Gannett Foundation recently awarded a $5,000 grant to 2-1-1 Brevard Inc.
The money will pay for development of an Android app for the Community Resource Database, which includes almost 2,500 services available to Brevard residents. An iPhone app previously was launched with a grant from the Boeing Co.
The Gannett grant also will contribute to improvements for software used by helpline specialists.
Gannett Co. Inc. is the parent company of Florida Today.
