Let the Partnership Continue
Impact Loan & Grant Fund
Citizens Bank has announced the expansion of its Impact Loans and Grants Program to support the continuing revitalization of historic downtown Batesville.
In 2016, Citizens Bank unveiled a five-year commitment that created a redevelopment fund of $10 million in low interest rate loans and $100,000 in grants to bolster the Impact Independence Strategic Plan for Independence County.
Throughout its seven year legacy, the bank’s Impact Loan and Grant Fund has motivated and supported property owners and merchants to transform previously vacant storefronts into thriving businesses.
With the most recent expansion, Citizens Bank has increased the loan funding to $15 million as well as adding $100,000 in additional grant funding for benefit of the Historic District.
