InRoads Credit Union awards grants

At the end of last year, InRoads Credit Union issued a call for submissions from Columbia County business owners for their Small Business Grant program. InRoads Credit Union awarded $25,000 in grant funds to 11 applicants. Businesses submitted paperwork and a video about their business. One of the award recipients was The Columbia Bakehouse in Rainier with a grant amount of $3,000. According to owners, they will likely apply the funds toward equipment for the bakery.

Additional awards were given out in $1,000, $3,000, and $5,000 increments. Recipients included Mizuna Gardens, LLC and Compassionate Caregiving, which received the $5,000 grants. Others receiving $1,000 and $3,000 grants include Fit and Phat Fitness, Flora Designs, Fork’d, My NW Event, Pure Focus Sports, Sande School of Horsemanship, Spilt Ink Gallery & Gift Shop and Teyama’s Touch.
