Farm Credit Canada (FCC) has contributed $3,000 to three projects in the Parkland region. All projects will benefit rural communities.

Goose Lake High School in Roblin received $1,000 for its reconciliation park project. The Grandview Drop-In Centre was awarded $1,000 for a landscaping project to beautify its grounds. The Roblin Playground Revitalization Project got $1,000 for its efforts to refurbish a local playground.

FCC’s donations are typically focused on hunger, rural safety, education about agriculture, volunteerism and community enhancement projects.
