PPL Montana Community Fund
Further strengthening the partnership between PPL Montana and its communities, the company has created a philanthropic community fund – administered with input from residents throughout the state – to award grants to Montana organizations.
Under the direction of a statewide advisory board composed of community, business and government representatives from throughout the state, as well as PPL Montana employees, PPL Montana will award $200,000 in 2009 in three major "quality of life" areas: education, environment and economic development.
Since the Community Fund began in 2005, PPL Montana has awarded a total of $900,000 to 145 Montana organizations. As a major corporation with 500 employees in Montana, this is part of our continuing work to be a good neighbor and a positive force in the state.
We envision that the grants – ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 – will improve the quality of education, enhance the environment and bring jobs and new tax revenues to Montana through improved economic development.
PPL Montana is absolutely committed to working with Montana communities to improve the quality of life for today and tomorrow. This new fund will further strengthen the partnership between PPL Montana and its communities and help build a more vibrant Montana.
We believe that Montana’s best days are yet to come. We believe that this community fund, strengthened by the advice of key statewide leaders, can play a role in making this belief reality.
PPL Montana will donate another $200,000 through its Community Fund in 2010. The fall application deadline is July 31, 2010. To access the application, please click on the link below. Applications are only accepted online.
