As part of our Economic Development strategy,
FSF is in the process of developing an Entrepreneurial Think-Tank
where we brainstorm different small-business ideas that fit within
the culture and demographics of Chapelton and surrounding areas. We
discuss the viability of these ideas and try to identify individuals
in the community who display the skills, leadership ability, and
willingness to take on these projects.
Our plan is to be able to provide start-up
loans and shared services (business planning, computing / printing,
office space, marketing, accounting) for entrepreneurial projects.
Through a series of town-hall meetings we have
identified several skills that already exist in the community. FSF
is seeking to partner with training organizations such H.E.A.R.T. to
develop these skills and create a business environment under which
these skills can be used to generate income.
