Columbia Housing residents that are either aspiring entrepreneurs or current business owners, you may find these programs beneficial. The SC Community Loan Fund is currently accepting applications for two business plan pitch competitions that we will be running simultaneously this fall:

• The Local Entrepreneur Acceleration Program (LEAP) - open to businesses from across the state with a focus on minority and women-owned businesses.
• Feeding Innovation - open to healthy food businesses with priority for this cycle given to entrepreneurs in and around Columbia and Richland County.

The winners of each of these competitions will receive a $20,000 capital investment in their respective businesses.
