Russell Main Street offers an incentive package in the form of a low-interest loan (IWW Loan and Russell Loan Program). The loan programs intend to create employment opportunities, save existing jobs, provide services and products, develop or strengthen new or existing businesses, acquire, rehabilitate or preserve properties, and create a stronger tax base. Russell Main Street offers loan opportunities for all investors. Additionally, Russell Main Street works diligently to capitalize on outside programs and funding which can help strengthen our local businesses and bring more visitors to our community. As a designated Kansas Main Street and National Main Street program, our organization has access to additional resources provided at the state and national level.
We are dedicated to bringing consumers to our community. Whether its during the annual Bricks, Broncs, and BBQ, Brew Me, Weihnachtsfest, Weihn Walk, Lighted Christmas Parade, monthly What's up in Russell, or during St. Patrick's Day for the Blarney Stone Hunt and Trivia Night, Russell Main Street offers individual businesses access to potential consumers.
At Russell Main Street, we build community. Through our events, programs, and projects, we partner with 12 local organizations, combining resources and building partnerships. We are the doers. On a limited budget, we have learned to work creatively to create results for our community. Some of our projects are very visible in the community, while others happen behind the scenes. All still creating a positive impact. Through our staple community events, zero percent interest loans, data tracking, revitalization efforts, beautification and design, we are dedicated to our Downtown and our entire community.
