At Geronimo Power, being a good neighbor means showing up for the communities where we live and work, not just through projects, but through partnerships that make a real difference.

That’s why our team recently presented a $5,000 donation to the Village of Wausa’s new Police Department to help strengthen local public safety efforts. The funds will be used to purchase essential equipment for the department as it continues serving residents across the community.

The check was presented by Project Development Manager Matt Woolery and Land Acquisition Consultant Tyler Jensen, with local leaders Dan Wamberg and Jon Munter in attendance, alongside Wausa’s new police chief, Jeff Boston.

The contribution is connected to our work at the nearby North Fork Wind Farm, where we’re proud to invest not only in power, but in the people and places that make these projects possible.

“Being a good neighbor means investing in the communities where we operate,” said Matt Woolery. “We’re proud to support Wausa’s police department and help provide equipment that strengthens local public safety.”

We’re grateful for the opportunity to support Chief Boston and the department as they continue their important work, and we look forward to continuing to partner with Wausa in meaningful ways.
