Piedmont Community College (PCC) is pleased to announce a generous donation of $10,000 from Roxboro Savings Bank to the College’s Small Business Center BOOST Program. This contribution will further expand the BOOST Program, which provides crucial financial support and training to small business owners in Person and Caswell Counties.
The BOOST (Building Opportunities on Saving and Training) Program, initially launched with the support of Roxboro Savings Bank, has already made a significant impact. Over the past year, BOOST funding has benefited 13 small businesses—10 in Person County and 3 in Caswell County—helping local entrepreneurs expand their operations, purchase equipment, and strengthen their businesses. Participants have ranged from farms and restaurants to artisan collectives, construction companies, and service providers.
“We are truly grateful to Roxboro Savings Bank for their generous support of the BOOST program,” Catherine English, Executive Director, PCC Foundation said. “The grants awarded to small business owners who complete the program provides crucial financial assistance for start-up or expansion and fuels their excitement and confidence for the future.”…
