DCDC revolving loan fund

USDA Rural Development awarded DeWitt County Development Council (DCDC) a grant for gap financing for local entrepreneurs. These short term/low interest loans are intended to be used to create jobs as well as Small Business Services such as Business Planning and Marketing Plans. The funds are RESTRICTED, which means they can only be loaned to for-profit businesses and cannot be used for DCDC operations. For more information, visit DCDC Revolving Loan Fund!
