Each group was awarded $5,000 to increase awareness of economic development strategies, marketing campaigns and special events.
Duke says each applicant submitted a plan with direct impact to the community’s economic growth, which did not include travel, lodging, food, beverage or entertainment expenses.
“Duke Energy is committed to strengthening collaborative efforts with our local and regional economic development partners,” said Erin Schneider, Indiana director of economic development for Duke Energy. “These grants provide those partners with resources to fund marketing and strategic efforts that result in new jobs and investments in the communities we serve.”
