RLACF has been awarded a Big Sky Trust Fund matching grant in the amount of $15,000 to have a re-use strategy and action plan prepared that will analyze reuse options based on community engagement, building health, and potential economic impacts to the community. The grant was matched with $15,000 in community contributions. RLACF was also awarded $75,000 by the Tippet Rice Foundation for the project.
