The grants provide funding for qualifying schools and organizations within the Grundy Electric Cooperative’s 12-county service area, which includes Harrison, Mercer and Grundy counties and portions of Linn, Livingston, Daviess, Gentry, Putnam and Sullivan counties in Missouri and portions of Ringgold, Wayne and Decatur counties in Iowa.
The next grant application deadline is July 1. Qualified applicants must be a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization or other eligible entity and may apply for a grant by completing a grant application with supporting information.
