Over the weekend, Navajo Transitional Energy Company participated in the Shiprock Junior Livestock Sale, purchasing several animals raised and shown by local youth.

Organized by local FFA and 4-H chapters, the event gives young participants the opportunity to build responsibility, confidence and hands-on business skills through the care and presentation of their animals.

Recent flooding across the Navajo Nation has created serious challenges for communities and families.
When a sudden waterline break left residents of the Cove Chapter facing the weekend with limited access to drinking water, NTEC responded quickly by coordinating with the Chapter to deliver a pallet of bottled water for residents in need.
NTEC is committed to supporting Navajo communities and responding when our neighbors need assistance.
