East Arkansasenterprise Community received a $106,000 Rural Business Development Grant (RBDG) award from the USDA's Rural Business Cooperative Services, effective September 26, 2025, with a completion date of September 26, 2027. Under this two-year Project Grant, the organization will deliver business development services and technical assistance to support small and emerging private businesses in rural Arkansas communities. Based on the organization's track record under this federal grant program (CFDA 10.351), deliverables are expected to include business counseling, feasibility studies, market research, workforce development training, and support for business incubators and industry cluster initiatives designed to promote sustainable economic development and job creation in underserved rural areas. The RBDG program prioritizes projects in low-income communities, those that create or preserve employment, and areas with elevated unemployment rates. East Arkansasenterprise Community's $106,000 award aligns with this mission by providing intermediary services to qualifying business-type operations that employ 50 or fewer new employees and have less than $1.0 million in projected gross revenue. As a tax-exempt nonprofit organization, the awardee will serve as the grant intermediary rather than providing direct funding to individual businesses, consistent with RBDG program requirements.
