Valleyview Co-op has announced Kenton’s Community Playground Project is receiving $39,000 through the Co-op Community Spaces fund. Kenton is located about 65-kilometres northwest of Brandon.
“Our support for the Kenton playground project is about more than equipment—it’s about creating lasting spaces where families can connect and kids can thrive,” said David Wowk, General Manager of Valleyview Co-op. “This is the second Community Spaces grant our Co-op has helped bring to the region in two years, following last year’s $100,000 contribution to the Virden Ag Society for a new barn. These investments reflect our long-term commitment to building strong, sustainable communities.”
Co-op Community Spaces is designed to help protect, beautify and improve spaces across Western Canada. Since 2015, Community Spaces has invested $14.5 million in 203 projects in three categories: recreation, environmental conservation and urban agriculture. FCL administers Community Spaces for more than 150 local Co-ops operating in 650 communities.
