This month, the Boone Electric Community Trust met on March 11 and awarded funding to Aging Best, Child Advocacy Center of Central Missouri, Lizzy's Walk of Faith Foundation, Mary Lee Johnston Community Learning Center and Missouri River Relief. Congratulations to these organizations!

These funds are made possible by Boone Electric Cooperative members participating in Operation Round Up and donating capital credits to make a difference in their community.

Great listen about the Trust from Trustee Morgan Corder!

This month on The Buzz we're diving deeper into the Boone Electric Community Trust with Morgan Corder. Morgan shares his journey from being familiar with co-ops at a young age to joining the BEC Trust as a reader and trustee. Along the way we discuss how readers aid the funding process, how committee chairs review applications and how residents in Boone Electric Cooperative's service territory can become involved in the Community Trust!
