GRANT OPPORTUNITY
Applications now open for 2017 Adopt-A-School and Rural Fire Department grant programs As an electric cooperative,
VVEC’s primary objective is to provide safe, reliable and afford- able electricity to our members. However, we are also a concerned partner in the development of the local community. One of the ways VVEC demonstrates our concern for the community is by offering grants to schools and rural fire de- partments in our service territory. Each year teachers, school administrators and fire department personnel are invited to submit an application for funds through VVEC’s Adopt-A-School and Rural Fire Department grant programs. Applicants are asked to explain how they will use the funds to

“The grant has helped out class- rooms quite a bit,” VVEC Member Services Representative Chub Brewer says. “It allows schools to fund something that’s not in their budget to enhance the students’ learning experience.”
Likewise, fire departments pur- chase tools and equipment they might not otherwise be able to af- ford. In turn, these purchases help improve the safety of the members of our community.
Grant applications are avail- able on VVEC’s website: www.
vvec.com, under the “Community Programs” tab. Applications should be sent to program coordinator Misti Frazier at P.O. Box 219, Col- linsville, OK 74021. This year’s application deadline is Friday, April 28 at 4 p.m.
Anyone with questions or those who need an application mailed to them can contact Frazier by calling 918-371-2584, ext. 6226 or by emailing her at mfrazier@vvec. com. Office hours are 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. “It’s a great program. We’re able to help and give back to the com- munity. That’s what we try to do,” Brewer says.
In December 2016, VVEC employees received awards for their years of service. Those recognized were (from left): Justin Stowers, 5 years; Jake Gibbs, 5 years; Clifton White,10 years; and Gary Yarbrough, 25 years. Photo by Misti Frazier
