Wheatland is proud to support the communities we serve through our Sharing Success Program.
Since 2012, Wheatland Electric, in partnership with CoBank, has given nearly $85,000 to the communities we serve through our Sharing Success Program, managed by the Scott Community Foundation. Throughout the year, Wheatland accepts applications for grants typically given out in $1,000 increments. In 2019 Wheatland and CoBank increased their contributions to $7,500, expanding the program.
In 2019, Wheatland’s Sharing Success Program awarded $13,000 in grants to non-profit organizations throughout our service territory. Recipients of our 2019 Sharing Success Grants were:
- Agora Inc. in Wichita County

The Sharing Success Program will once again have $15,000 available for nonprofit organizations in 2020. The application process for the Sharing Success program requires a letter with a description of your nonprofit organization, the project details and the costs associated with the project for which you are requesting the grant.
