Community Spaces grant program launched for sixth year

The Co-op Community Spaces program is back for a sixth year, and is providing funding of between $25,000 and $150,000 for community projects.

That could include spaces that teach nutritious cooking, to local wildlife education areas, and arts and culture centres.

“Co-op Community Spaces was launched in 2015 to help protect, beautify and improve spaces across Western Canada. Since then, it has provided $8.5 million to 115 projects, including parks, playgrounds, greenhouses and sports fields,” said a news release from the Armstrong Regional Co-op.

“Locally, the Armstrong Regional Co-op is proud to support organizations and projects that make a difference to our members and our community,” said Jason Keis Marketing and Sales Manager of the Armstrong Regional Co-op.
