Congratulations to the Curators of the University of Missouri, who were recently awarded a grant of $191,038 from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act as Technical Assistance Recipients. Finley is proud to be a selected partner and work with the University to make this project a success.

This grant, part of a Rural Development cooperative agreement, will support the expansion of high-speed internet in Carter and Shannon counties in Missouri.

This project aims to benefit Distressed Energy Communities and Persistent Poverty Communities in Missouri.
