SPOKANE, Wash. (Sept. 5, 2018) – Northwest Farm Credit Services is proud to award the Boyes Community Club Hall in Hammond, Montana, a $1,000 Northwest FCS Rural Community Grant.
"The members of the Boyes Community Club Hall deeply appreciate the grant from Northwest Farm Credit Services," said Club member Heather Brownfield. "The Boyes Community Club is the center point of many local functions. This grant will help us replace all the aging windows in the hall, which is part of our continued preservation effort so generations to come can enjoy many different functions in our community. Without the help of such grants this project would not be possible."
