Sharing Success Community Grants

  3. Sharing Success Community Grants

In partnership with matching grants from CoBank, Western Cooperative Electric provides grants to local organizations whose project serves a public purpose.

Applications will be accepted on April 1, 2022. Applications must be submitted by July 21, 2022.

Those interested in applying for grant funds can submit an electronic application by clicking the 'Apply Now" button found at the bottom of the page.

Contribution Request Amount

Western will award 1-4 grants totaling $20,000. The minimum request is $2,000. The CoBank’s Sharing Success program is competitive on a first-come-first-serve basis, and funds are limited; therefore, Western Cooperative Electric is not guaranteed the full amount of granting dollars.

Eligibility

In general, contributions to any 501(c)(3) charity are eligible. Select organizations that are not designated a 501(c)(3) may also be eligible. These organizations include schools and government organizations such as counties or municipalities and their agencies or departments, as long as the donation serves a public purpose. Organizations that are political in nature, limit their activities based on religious affiliation, or discriminate do not qualify.

Priority will be given to organizations in Western Cooperative Electric’s service territory, which includes areas in the counties of Barton, Ellis, Ellsworth, Graham, Lincoln, Gove, Ness, Osborne, Rooks, Rush, Russell, Sheridan, and Trego.

There is little restriction on the type of projects that can apply. Western just asks that your project be community-oriented.
