WOODRUFF COUNTY, Ark. — Woodruff County Economic Development has secured another $325,000 for local organizations as part of the Arkansas Electric Cooperative solar project south of Augusta.
Woodruff County Economic Development said the McCrory and Augusta School Districts and the Woodruff County Food Pantry will each receive $5,000 annually for at least the next 15 years.
Arkansas Electric has also agreed to make a one-time contribution of $100,000 to the Woodruff County Economic Development Fund.
Woodruff County Judge Michael John Gray said the hunger programs at both school districts are maintained almost exclusively through private donations.
Contributions can be sent by mail to the McCrory and Augusta School Districts and the Woodruff County Food Pantry to help address food insecurity.
