October 15 Deadline for Bowers Fund Grants

The next round of co-op training and education grants from the Howard Bowers Fund has an October 15 deadline. Find details and an application at www.cdf.coop/bowersfund/.  

The Bowers Fund is housed at the Cooperative Development Foundation and overseen by a volunteer group of food co-op leaders.  The Bowers Fund strengthens the food co-op community by awarding grants to co-op staff, managers, and board members for training and education.

Since its establishment in 1993, the Bowers Fund has awarded over $300,000 in grants to support the food co-op sector.
