BLACCC Receives Generous Grant From Otto Bremer Trust

As the Battle Lake Area Child Care Center nears completion, the capital campaign team races to close a funding gap, which includes the costs of paving the parking lot, fire alarm monitoring and security systems, hook up to city sewer, and a cupola.

This week, The Otto Bremer Trust helped close that gap with a timely and significant award of $100,000 to assist with construction to Battle Lake Youth Center Inc (BLYCI) —the nonprofit that is bringing the child care center to the area.

BLYCI and the capital campaign team are grateful to The Otto Bremer Trust as well as the hundreds of people inside and outside our community – foundations, businesses, churches, service organizations, families and individuals—who have helped make the dream of a child care center in the area come true.

The Otto Bremer Trust moves us close to the end goal, but we’re not quite there yet. Those who would like to help close the remaining gap can still do so. To make a pledge or donation, stop by 1st National Bank and pick up a donation form or send to BLYCI, P.O. Box 303, Battle Lake, MN  56515. It’s not too late to make a difference.
