Continuing a long-term commitment to healthy communities for Central and Southern Kentucky homeowners, Bluegrass Realtors® announced its $2,000 investment in Winchester-Clark County Industrial Development Authority. Over the past 19 years, Bluegrass Realtors® has made available over $650,000 to promote economic development across the region.
“Bluegrass Realtors® partners annually with communities to provide resources, foster regional collaboration and facilitate positive economic results,” said Kelley Nisbet, president of Bluegrass Realtors®. “The support provided to these local organizations will help attract, develop and expand businesses, and ultimately create jobs. Studies show that a strong real estate market is the foundation to a healthy community and this investment is the Association’s dedication to achieving that goal.”
This initiative supports innovation and activities directly related to job creation, expansion and retention. A financial investment is available to each local economic development organization within the Association’s 30-county primary service area as a way to fund programs that will promote and build the local economy.
“We are appreciative to Bluegrass Realtors® and their generous support of our economic development efforts,” said Brad Sowden, executive director of the Winchester-Clark County Industrial Development Authority. “This investment will allow us to prepare and deliver a great Industrial Appreciation Luncheon for our industries here in Winchester/Clark County. The event serves as a catalyst for our leaders to generate ideas with colleagues and promote workforce development.”
