Details of the funds are as follows: North Dakota Association of Rural Electric Cooperatives $200,000 grant The funds will be used for several projects including working with the Center for Rural Health at the University of North Dakota to identify opportunities for rural home care cooperatives, supporting a meat processing plant in Pettibone and developing food purchasing cooperatives in rural areas.
