December is already here, marking the mid-year point for ERDA and big things are happening.
Enid Regional Development Alliance is fortunate to have been awarded $20,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding from the City of Enid. These funds are dedicated to supporting business owners in the lower income bracket of Garfield County through the MicroEnterprise grant program, a longstanding initiative by ERDA. In the recent fiscal year of 2024, Foster Carpentry and Creations secured $9,000, while TLC Patterns received $6,000. Notably, in fiscal year 2023, five small businesses were each granted $7,500.
