147 | Jenna Ramsey of Stanton Community Development and Kevin Cabbage of FMTC Rural Revival

    • Entreprenörskap

On today’s episode of the Rural Revival podcast we’re with Stanton Community Development Director Jenna Ramsey, and FMTC General Manager and CEO Kevin Cabbage, both from Stanton, Iowa (pop. 678).
Kevin and Jenna are sharing how Kevin’s company created a role for a community development director, a role that Jenna now fills, in partnership with their city. This partnership, along with Jenna’s hard work and the help of many others, has allowed them to receive over $5 million in grants in five years — and their Main Street is thriving.
The theme that resonates throughout this interview is people and partners. If you want strategies for getting your community to work together on a greater vision and get projects completed, you are going to love this interview!
We are excited to be featuring success stories from Stanton all week long, so be sure to check out our socials and website each day for new inspiration!
