No Barriers Veterans Opportunity

As a member of CoBank we'd like to share with Veterans in our area an opportunity for a No Barriers Warriors event.

CoBank, a cooperative bank serving rural infrastructure providers including us at Menard Electric Cooperative, has joined forces with nonprofit No Barriers USA to honor and support the millions of Veterans in America’s rural communities with service-related disabilities.

Veterans from within our service territory are invited to apply for the No Barriers Warriors Experiences, a program designed to help Veterans with visible and invisible disabilities transform their lives through curriculum-based experiences and create a network of support that can last a lifetime. If selected for the CoBank/No Barriers program, CoBank will fund the majority of costs for the participant, including a travel stipend and a $500 "first gift credit" towards the participant's individual fundraising goal.

Applications accepted first come basis until May 30, 2025. Visit CoBank's website for details and to apply. Be sure to select "rural" or "rural fringe" on your application to be considered for CoBank's funding support.  

We'd love to know if one of our members applies so please let us know at info@menard.com
