Local Heroes Project
The Heroes Project started as an idea to provide a simple “thank you” to our frontline workers to remind them that they, and their services, are appreciated. What better way to show appreciation than with products sourced from our local businesses also impacted by the virus?
Great Lakes Jobs
In Michigan, we love our lakes, guard our paychecks, and work hard at our jobs. The new, high-tech Great Lakes Tunnel planned for deep below the Mackinac Straits protects all three. Join us! Help us build the Great Lakes Tunnel.
Marquette County EDC COVID-19 Loan Program
The COVID-19 Loan Program is a separate fund from the traditional RLF Program with different guidelines. These funds are available to businesses to help alleviate sudden and severe economic dislocation caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
