Community facilities - native american tribes

This federal Project Grant award of $315,000.00, provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture through the Community Facilities Loans and Grants program (CFDA 10.766), supports Bay Mills Community College in Michigan. The grant funding enables the tribal college to construct, enlarge, extend, or otherwise improve community facilities that provide essential services to rural residents. Through this award, Bay Mills Community College will engage in a range of initiatives, including agricultural research and extension services, youth development programs focused on nutrition and leadership, and STEM education efforts for faculty and students. The college also conducts community outreach such as operating a farm stand, providing nutrition education, and supporting food preservation workshops. This grant aligns with the Community Facilities Loans and Grants program's objective of ensuring reasonable user costs for rural community infrastructure projects and strengthening essential services in economically challenged regions.
