29 Jan DREMC presenta una donación a la Cámara del Condado de Moore, para la revitalización económica
Duck River Electric Membership Corporation (DREMC) is facilitating a $25,000 total contribution to support local economies, with $12,500 being contributed by DREMC and a matching $12,500 donation provided by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).
Several chambers of commerce in the DREMC service area have been awarded funding with each being presented a portion of the total donated funds to support economic revitalization and job growth in their communities. The Lynchburg/Moore County Chamber of Commerce is the most recent recipient of the funding.
Other chambers receiving a portion of the funding include the Maury County Alliance, the Franklin County Chamber, the Manchester Chamber, the Shelbyville/Bedford County Chamber and the Marshall County Chamber.
"DREMC se enorgullece de apoyar a estas cámaras y el trabajo que están haciendo para estimular la economía durante estos tiempos difíciles", dijo el presidente y CEO de DREMC, Scott Spence. "El objetivo de esta donación es ayudar a las empresas existentes a obtener el apoyo que necesitan para seguir proporcionando puestos de trabajo, así como promover el desarrollo de nuevas empresas, lo que crea aún más puestos de trabajo para los miembros a los que servimos. Esta es una forma en la que DREMC puede contribuir a estos esfuerzos".
This is the second COVID-19 relief contribution made by DREMC. In June 2020, DREMC made a $60,000 donation to their residential electric bill assistance program, Project HELP, which has supported hundreds of families facing financial instability.
