Funding opportunities highlighted in the Rural LISC newsletter

Two funding opportunities highlighted in the January 2014 Rural LISC newsletter may be of particular interest to our colleagues.

THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION is offering funding to public agencies, nonprofits, Institutions of Higher Education and Indian Tribes for a wide variety of planning, community development and economic development projects to improve economic conditions for low-income people in economically distressed communities.
