The Central Appalachia Empowerment Zone of West Virginia is a federally designated Rural Enterprise Community. It serves all of Clay County and portions of Braxton, Fayette, Nicholas and Roane Counties. In 1994, these communities developed a grassroots plan for improving the economy and quality of life of the region. The resulting federal designation has allowed CAEZ to access significant resources to implement the plan.

SMALL BUSINESS MICRO LOAN PROGRAM

CAEZ is committed to assisting existing businesses in our service area to expand and prosper – and in attracting new businesses which can provide additional services and employment to our communities. "One of CAEZ's first projects was the creation of a loan fund to provide bridge financing for new and expanding zone businesses", said Connie Lupardus, CAEZ Executive Director. "If you wish to purchase a business, open a new business, or need to expand your current business, give me a call to discuss your needs."

For help with a CAEZ Business Micro Loan, contact the CAEZ Office by email at mbodkins@caez-wv.org or by calling 304-587-2034 or 800-935-3921.
