CIBA Notes - March 1st, 2007
Economic Development Funding Allocations for 2007
CIBA has applied to the City of Corvallis to participate in the Economic Development Funding Allocations for 2007. The funding requests are due by March 30th. We need help from experienced grant writers to help put our proposal together. We have a wealth of supporting research studies to validate the economic impact (positive) for Independent Business Alliances, but we need to put it in an easy to read booklet. Please contact Jack Wolcott at Grass Roots Books & Music, at 754-7668, or at groots@peak.org">groots@peak.org , if you can help.
