Pride Ag Resources Foundation
I am pleased to announce that the Board of Directors of Pride Ag Resources has established Pride Ag Resources Foundation which is a 501 C-3 Charitable corporation. The foundation will be used to match funds from regional cooperatives such as CoBank
who have matching funds for charitable contributions. Since 2009, Pride Ag Resources has donated over $20,000 in scholarships helping 20 different students with their college tuitions. Prior to that, Pride Ag Resources has also made contributions to
members and neighboring communities that have been affected by tornados and other disasters.
Members can also contribute to the foundation to help scholarships and other unforeseen disasters that may affect members and neighboring communities. In the future, please look for contributions to be made to area high school seniors and people
in need from the foundation. If you have interest in making a tax deductible contribution to the Pride Ag Resources Foundation, please contact CEO Jerald Kemmerer or CFO Bob Bender.

H.E.R.O.E.S. (Home Encouraging Respect Of Every Serviceperson)
We are starting a new organization in the area! It is created by four Military mothers: Jana Harms, Kim Olinger, Melissa Dahlke, and Susan Russell, with Kathy Koehn representing the school district. When our sons left for boot camp and tech training, we mothers didn't know what to expect. We decided that a support system, here at home, would have made our experience a lot easier. This organization hopes to be that support system for military families in Montezuma, Copeland, and Ensign and supporting our own community HEROES ….. Either Active or Reserves.
Our mission statement is, HEROES we are……because THEY ARE.
Our goals are to provide each and every military family with the support that is needed, increase awareness of our military, showing appreciation and patriotism in our communities. While many of our meetings will be Closed to Military families, we will have many Open meetings that will involve our communities, such as Homecomings/Receptions, Send Off’s to Boot Camp, Adopting our Own, Sending Care Packages and remembering those “Special” days. We currently have approx 20 – 25 young men and women in our communities to support! Come and help us support our HEROES!!
Our first meeting will be a Closed meeting to Military families and will be held on Thursday, June 27, at 7:00 pm at the Montezuma Senior Citizens building on Aztec Street. We look forward to seeing you and hearing about your Serviceperson!
