Nine Ways to Cut Energy Bills p. 3 Co-op Grant Programs Help Area
Schools, Rural Fire Departments Applications Available Online; Deadline April 15
Lending a helping hand is the
action of a good neighbor, and VVEC strives to be just that type of a friend. That is why we sponsor the
Adopt-A-School, and Rural Fire Department grant programs. Through these programs, VVEC
works with area educators to sup- port and enhance students’ learn- ing experiences, and to improve area fire departments’ abilities to protect residents’ lives and prop- erty.
Each year teachers and ad-
ministrators, and fire department personnel, are invited to submit applications for funds. They are asked to detail what they want to purchase, along with the costs, and to explain how their requests will help them meet their goals and objectives. The grants are used by school
personnel to purchase such items as books, computers, software, or playground equipment. Fire departments use their grants to purchase such equipment as hoses, communication equipment,
and firefighter gear, or to fund personnel training. By helping area fire depart-
ments in this manner VVEC can help them reduce their ISO rating, which in turn helps reduce mem- bers’ homeowners’ insurance. Applications are currently
available on VVEC’s Web site -
www.vvec.com - under the ‘Com- munity Programs’ tab. Once completed, applications
need to be sent to program coor- dinator Kay Rabbitt-Brower at P. O. Box 219, Collinsville, OK 74021.
Deadline to submit applica-
tions is 4 p.m. Wednesday, April 15.
After the deadline, all applica-
tions will be reviewed and recipi- ents will be notified by letter. Anyone with questions about
the programs, or who would like to have an application mailed to them, can contact Rabbitt-Brower at the co-op by calling (918) 371- 2584, ext. 6214, or E-mailing her at
KRabbitt-Brower@VVEC.com. Office hours are 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
