Good morning, Chattanooga!
A group of Chattanooga businesses and startups didn’t have to wait until the winter holidays for their wish lists to be granted.
As a part of Chattanooga Startup Week, five organizations were awarded a portion of $58,000 in grants from the Tennessee Valley Federal Credit Union during the fourth annual Idea Leap event.
“The pandemic does impact small businesses who are the lifeblood of our community, so we wanted to help them as much as we possibly could,” said credit union spokesperson Jessica McCosh.
