Electric co-ops across Colorado have until April 15 to nominate local veterans for a scholarship to the No Barriers Warriors program sponsored by CoBank, a national cooperative bank headquartered in Denver.

Electric co-op communities are home to men and women who have served in our armed forces and come home with service-related disabilities. So, again this year, CoBank is sponsoring the No Barriers Warriors program for 50 vets. The program challenges veterans to stretch physical and emotional boundaries and overcome barriers, creating the beginning of a positive change for them.

The expeditions will take place in June and July.
