Lockwood Motors - Pay it Forward Christmas Program |
Lockwood Motors in Marshall is going to run a promotion for our
pay it forward Christmas program through December 18th.
Here's how it works. When you donate toys at Lockwood Motors, all you have to do is show a receipt for those toys and for every dollar that you spent on those toys Lockwood Motors will give you the equal dollar amount in free car washes. For example if you bring in $100 worth of toys and show that receipt to Lockwood Motors they will in turn give you $100 worth of free car washes. A huge thank you to Lockwood Motors in Marshall!!

Rural Relief Small Business Grants |
|
Apply NOW for the next round of Rural Relief Small Business Grants.
As part of our continuing commitment to elevate our impact in rural America, OneLISC is inviting small business owners in rural locations across the country to apply for the LISC-Lowe's Rural Relief Small Business Grants program.
Rural LISC is grateful for Lowe’s generous support for rural small businesses. We are committed to the integrity of the grant application process and to the security of applicants’ information. A couple of things to keep in mind:
· Valid grant applications are only accepted through the links posted on www.lisc.org
· We will never request copies of personal documentation such as driver’s licenses, passports, and/or green cards.
· The application is easy to fill out, requiring basic business information – professional grant writing assistance will not increase the chances of selection.
Caitlin (Cait) Cain, CEcD, MUP
LISC Vice President and Rural Director
Rural LISC works with 92 partner organizations creating sustainable rural communities across 45 states. Visit our website here and if you would like to sign up to receive the Rural eNews each month, click here.

New minimum wage poster available, other required posters |

Minnesota law requires employers to display state-mandated posters in a location where all employees can easily see them, such as in the break room, in a common area or by the time clock.
The five required posters contain information about age discrimination, Minnesota minimum-wage rates, safety and health protections on the job, unemployment benefits and workers' compensation. DLI offers the posters at no cost, in English, Hmong, Somali and Spanish.
