Start a REAP
Association
Small local
businesses are at the core of economic activity
in rural communities, and support for theses
businesses should be a part of the development
plan of every small community. REAP is designed
to be a partner in that plan. REAP enhances
local business formation and invests in local
people and in the future of the local community.
To become involved, a community, small business,
or individual should:
- Contact REAP
to find out if REAP is available in your
area.
- Identify a
local contact person that can help with the
association formation.
- Determine if
there is sufficient local interest (10-20
potential members).
- Raise the
start-up cost of $1200.
REAP resources
are limited and its procedures subject to
change. Communities should contact REAP
before undertaking any organizing activities.
