RDFC awards grants in Northern Plains’ service area

October 3, 2022
FOR IMMIDATE RELEASE

Rural Development Finance Corporation awards grants in Northern Plains Electric’s service area

Cando, N.D. - Northern Plains Electric Cooperative is a member of the Rural Development Finance corporation (RDFC).  As a result, communities in our service area were eligible to apply for a grant of up to $2,000 for community-based projects. RDFC is making these funds available in order that more people become aware of their large loan program that funds community-based projects and non-profits entities with low interest loans.

RDFC has recently granted $666 to the Towner County Historical Society located in Egeland.  The museums for the Towner County Historical Society consist of a depot, jail, Presbyterian Church, 3 buildings uptown and the previous Egeland School.  The grant funds will be used to put steel around the museum depot building in Egeland.

A grant of $667 went to the Robinson Fire Department.  The fire hall serves as a gathering location for the community in time of need and grant funds will be used to purchase a generator for emergency back-up for loss of power at the fire hall.

The Leeds Park District was awarded $667 to help with the replacement of the playground equipment at the Leeds City Park.  The growing community of Leeds is looking forward to having safe, updated playground equipment for children of all ages to enjoy.
