Avista has given more than $100,000 to start the program as part of a larger regional initiative by the company to help aspiring entrepreneurs get started and have the necessary support to become successful. In addition, Avista has created a $500,000 revolving micro-loan fund to help those who have completed their studies. The program has already created more than 40 small businesses.

STCU is offering a one-for-one match up to $10,000 for donations made on-
