ARC Receives $20K Grant from WESTCO and CHS

The Alliance Rec Center (ARC) was the recipient of a $20,000 grant courtesy of WESTCO and the CHS Seeds for Stewardship Grant Program. The funds will support the ARC’s Make More Possible Campaign 2024.

The campaign aims to raise funds for upgrades to the gymnasium. The project has been split into two phases and includes the installation of a rooftop HVAC unit and resurfacing of the gymnasium floor. Prior to the donation, the campaign had raised over $85,000 towards its $160,000 goal.

WESTCO President and CEO David Briggs said, “Several WESTCO employees are members and volunteers at the ARC and we are very happy to present this grant to them. The ARC plays a vital role in the overall health of Alliance, and provides the community with many key services.

WESTCO would also like to thank CHS and the Seeds for Stewardship Grant Program. By combining our resources, we are providing double the impact to our area and demonstrating the cooperative spirit.”

The CHS Seeds for Stewardship Grant Program is an initiative aimed at supporting rural communities and organizations across the nation. Through strategic partnerships and targeted grants, the program seeks to foster sustainable practices, improve safety, and promote social well-being.
