This email is being distributed over the Oregon Main Street listserv.

Just a reminder the deadline to submit your letter of intent for the new Rural Opportunity Initiative through Business Oregon is next week, December 20th. This seems to be a good match for our main street towns in communities with population of 30,000 or less. Awards will range from $5,000 to $100,000. A total of $725,000 is available in three funding categories:

Concept – the starting point to building broader community support

Launch – rallying community through action

Scale – scaling up to make a major investment in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

See the info below and check out Business Oregon’s website for more info.
