§ 15.1-24. Donations to charitable institutions and associations.

Counties, cities and towns of this Commonwealth are authorized to make appropriations of public funds, of personal property or of any real estate to any charitable institution or association, located within their respective limits or outside their limits if such institution or association provides services to residents of the locality ; provided, such institution or association is not controlled in whole or in part by any church or sectarian society.
