In an effort to simplify the funding request process for local small businesses, Cultivate has created a single intake form that, once completed, will be automagically distributed to five local business funders.

    The Candy Factory

    The Candy Factory has been an unbelievable contribution to the success of my business. As soon as I was plugged in, I was connected with local resources to assure my success. Over the course of the last 16 months, I have taken educational classes and enriching lunch & learns. For Unique Lancaster Experiences, a membership at TCF has connected me with the community and rallied support around my efforts to diversify tourism. I have a physical location to send my business documents and an open desk to work. But the Candy Factory provides an opportunity to become richly informed about Entrepreneurship and expand your horizons to anything you can dream about.
