Local businesses are the foundation of any community. We support businesses that provide quality goods and services to lower-income communities or other disadvantaged populations, enhance the stability of lower-income or rural neighborhoods, and produce products that enhanced the environment or reduce pollution.

Small business advisors are available for potential and existing business owners and provide one-on-one personalized guidance and support. Clients range from prospective entrepreneurs in the exploratory phase seeking to determine the validity of business ideas and feasibility to seasoned pros looking to expand or analyze current business practices.

We assist members & clients with a wide range of activities to meet their needs. This may include business plan creation and editing, marketing plans, loan application preparation, and other business development activities.
