Ag Days Gives Grant to Ste. Anne Fire Department

Manitoba Ag Days through their “Ag Days Gives Back” program is sending $2,000 to the Ste. Anne Fire Department to help with their purchase of grain rescue equipment and air bags, which are used to lift heavy items in the event of an accident with entrapment.

Manitoba Ag Days created the “Ag Days Gives Back” grant program 10 years ago and has awarded over $375,000 over the years for community projects. A total of $29,000 was given out this year.

In addition to focusing on community fire departments this year, the program also awarded funding to scholarships and Ag in the Classroom.
