Foothills Search and Rescue recently added some new vehicles to their fleet, thanks to a provincial grant.
On Tuesday, March 1, the Government of Alberta announced $64 million in funding for the Community Initiative Program (CIP) and Community Facility Enhancement Program.
"Through our community grants programs, we are ensuring hundreds of non-profits across the province have the necessary support to make life better for Albertans," said the Minister of Culture and Status of Women, Tanya Fir.
The CIP program saw $14 million in funding.
Among the recipients was Foothills Search and Rescue, who received over $45,000.
The organization operates out of Diamond Valley but serves a wide area stretching beyond the borders of Foothills County.
