Enterprise Charlotte Foundation

 
 
 

The Enterprise Charlotte Foundation, a charitable 501(c)3 organization, was established to provide a funding vehicle for businesses to invest in the long-term economic vitality of Charlotte County.

 

The Foundation raises private sector money to support the efforts of the Economic Development Office and the Enterprise Charlotte Board to improve the business climate.

 

The Economic Development Office is the County's economic development engine, recruiting and retaining businesses, providing business assistance and monitoring emerging business issues.

 
Investing in our Community
Economic prosperity and stability requires public commitment, private involvement, hard work and financial investment.  The competitive nature of attracting businesses to locate or expand, and even to work with existing businesses, requires unique skills and available resources.  In an arena where supply always outpaces demand, communities have to be innovative, creative and market-savvy to attract top businesses.
 
Why Should You Invest?

The more dollars flowing into a community, the more money available for infrastructure such as parks, roads and schools, all of which result in a higher standard of living and quality of life for citizens.  In addition, economic diversification is critical to maintain the financial security of a community during economically challenging times.

Supporting economic development in Charlotte County gives our community a competitive edge as we head into the future.  Building a foundation of high wage jobs, insuring access to education, quality housing, peace of mind and outstanding quality of life are the responsibility of today's business community and citizens.

 
Investing In Charlotte County Is Good For Business
"Charlotte County remains relatively underdeveloped as a community, which means the chance for a business person to be on the front end of opportunity when it's at its peak.  Front end in terns of the best bang for the investment dollar, front end in finding the best locations and front end in securing a superior long-term foundation for either a new or existing business.  Your investment is further secured knowing that we sit in one of the most attractive growth markets in the country, somewhat insulated from dramatic economic changes due to the nature of our population, climate, and overall desirable living conditions."
