RDFC Pauses Grant Program for 2025 

The Rural Development Finance Corporation (RDFC) board is pausing a grant program for 2025 due to a relatively low available fund balance. Under the grant program in 2024, member electric and broadband cooperatives, NDAREC and the Broadband Association of North Dakota could allocate $3,000 toward community and non-profit projects within their service areas with approximately $90,000 in assistance awarded in total. 

Next year after the RDFC annual meeting, the board will discuss whether they will reauthorize a grant program for 2026.
