"We are forever grateful!"
We are not businesswomen, but my daughter and I have a passion for people and food, especially beignets. So, the story of Ten/6 begins, and struggles in Coeur d’Alene. We needed a big “boost” educationally and financially to get our restaurant plans focused. It was our luck that we found Economic Opportunity. What we expected was a quick call with more numbers and names of someone else who ‘maybe’ could help us.
To our surprise – we got a zoom meeting, with a welcoming face who wasn’t in a rush. Jessica spent over an hour with us on that first call. She was genuinely interested, asked thoughtful questions, and truly wanted to know our story. She knew right away the resources we needed and which team members to meet. We were supported, mentored, and inspired on our entrepreneurial journey. It was a game changer! From our first meeting with Jessica, to Cameo, our loan underwriter, and Mark who taught us about projections and finances – everyone helped us navigate unfamiliar territory. Now we are set to re-open this fall! “It’s hard to put into words how much the whole EO team impacted me and our business. We are forever grateful!”
Making his vision to help others a reality.
Congratulations to driven entrepreneur Jonathan Amissa on launching Skyroad Medical Transportation -a non-emergency transportation provider in the Treasure Valley. Skyroad Medical Transportation provides ADA compliant vehicles and wheelchairs to transport patients, elderly and people with disabilities from their home to doctor’s appointments and rehab programs. When the pandemic hit, Jonathan was eager to support his community members. He sewed dozens of cloth masks and provided them free of charge to those in need. EO is proud to be a part of making Johnathan’s vision a reality.
Together we are changing lives to create stability, prosperity and hope for all community members.
