Overview
Mission
In 2025 we included the Towns Home Improvment grant project as well that focused on housing in the rural community or Hanston. It is the mission of HG Co Economic Development to promote growth and quality living through the revitalization of the economy and to ensure adequate housing, services, and a safe environment for all citizens of the County. We believe that providing good information and learning opportunities to our businesses and entrepreneurs will strengthen their ability to have a strong, sustainable business and that exposure to the entrepreneurial mindset will encourage young people to stay or come back to live in this community. We are also tasked with promoting the community as a good place to live, work and play in numerous publications, trade shows, and within the State, region and local community.
What it reported doing in 2025
Business Development and Tourism Development funds were used to put on programming for local businesses in the community, to assist them in being more sustainable and resilient. Classes, and one-on-one mentoring in marketing (social media marketing), record retention, Destination Creation, etc., as well as Youth Entrepreneurship Development. Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to keep exact numbers for these trainings, workshops and one on one mentoring sessions, without duplicating, but we have estimated to have reached 160 different persons in our community, some multiple times. This year we were awarded a rural champion grant that wasn't dispersed until 2025, however it will be used for work and sustainable housing. We also took part in the Love Kansas promotion.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
