HL Thriving Communities to apply for grants

HOWARD LAKE, MN – The Howard Lake Thriving Communities program will soon be applying for a grant for financial assistance to implement the projects being planned by each task force.

Members of the three task forces have been meeting for a few months to plan projects which can take place this year.

The grant being applied for from the Initiative Foundation is $20,000, and requires a match of $10,000. In-kind work qualifies as part of the matching money for the grant.
