Even though I'll be submitting a few people myself, I think we all need to share info because it's the right thing to do. It shouldn't be about who can find what first and keep it to themselves. Plus the more people apply, the more they'll see how beneficial the program is and maybe increase the dough. So here 'tis.
AgStar knows how important emergency response volunteers are to rural communities' safety and well-being, and we want to make sure they are provided with the most up-to-date equipment.
Applications for grants, up to $2,500, may be obtained from agstar.com starting July 15, 2006 until August 31, 2006. Departments can complete the grant form and file it electronically.
AgStar is committed to rural America and is proud to support the rural and agricultural communities where we operate. Through this grant program and the other programs of the AgStar Fund we are helping to ensure a strong future of rural America.
