Kandiyohi Power Cooperative partnered with CoBank in their Sharing Success charitable matching grant program. CoBank is a cooperative bank that delivers financial services to the U.S. rural economy in all 50 states.

CoBank’s Sharing Success program matches qualifying contributions made by its members, such as Kandiyohi Power Cooperative, to local non-profit and charitable organizations. Since Sharing Success was established in 2012, CoBank and its members have together contributed nearly $76 million to groups such as volunteer fire departments, local schools and hunger relief programs. Through an application process with CoBank, Kandiyohi County Family YMCA’s Spicer Early Learning Center received matching funds from CoBank this year.

Matching contribution: $5,000

Everything the YMCA does is in the service and spirit of building a better community. The matching contribution will be used to fund Creative Curriculum materials from Teaching Strategies. Kandiyohi County Family YMCA accepts the donation from KPC. Pictured are Pam Fox and Jenny Holweger from the YMCA and Patrick Krueger and Ashley Veeder from KPC.
