We're thrilled to share that we received eight proposals from community members, business owners and nonprofit leaders interested in becoming the kick-off campaign for our new locally based crowdfunding platform, called The Local Crowd Monadnock.

The proposals were diverse -- a number of campaigns focused on the arts and agriculture; some supported for-profit businesses and others boosted non-profits; a number wanted to launch brand new start-up businesses, while others focused on growing established businesses.

After reviewing all the proposals we received, we plan to follow-up with our top candidates this week to confirm their ability to launch their crowdfunding campaign on March 15, 2017.

While we plan to launch with one or two campaigns in March, there's still an opportunity for everyone who submitted a proposal to run their campaign on TLC Monadnock at a future date.
