The mission is aimed at ensuring a strong future in rural America, specifically within Compeer's 144-county territory across Illinois, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. This is achieved by facilitating economic development and improving community assets through funding feasibility studies.
The broad goal of the County Fair Facility Upgrade Grant Program is to ensure the sustainability and improvement of county fairs by offering financial support for the repair and enhancement of fairground facilities. This includes specific causes such as the maintenance of livestock buildings, 4-H buildings, and livestock judging arenas. The program seeks to foster community spirit and agricultural education by ensuring county fairs can continue to provide high-quality experiences annually.
