NEBRASKA |
| |
Historically, Nebraskans have built their
livelihoods and communities one job at a time – primarily through
small, family-operated businesses and farms. Many of today’s
most successful businesses in Nebraska began many years ago as small
locally-owned businesses.

ENTERPRISE |
| |
Microenterprise businesses – with five
or fewer employees – are the base of Nebraska’s economy.
The Nebraska Enterprise Fund does not directly serve
businesses, but provides funding for programs that provide loans,
training and technical assistance to businesses. |

FUND |
| |
The Nebraska Enterprise Fund is a statewide financial intermediary dedicated to supporting
microenterprise practitioners. In 1997 the Nebraska Microenterprise Partnership Fund
became incorporated
as a 501(c)(3) and became a certified Community Development
Financial Institution (CDFI) in 1998. In 2008, the Partnership
Fund name was changed to Nebraska Enterprise Fund.
Nebraska Enterprise Fund raises funds from various
national- and state-level sources and then awards grants, loans, and
related products to microenterprise programs through an annual “request
for proposal” process. |
