Votaw Electric "Pays it Forward"


We'd like to give a nod to Chamber member Votaw Electric for their creativity and generosity. Votaw has given each of their employees 60 $2 bills, and directed them to spend the money at local businesses. The employees were also encouraged to donate a percentage to charity, and to use the $2 bills as a conversation starter to encourage other Northeast Indiana businesses to do the same. This is Votaw's way of stimulating the local economy, providing their employees with dollars to spend at area businesses. What an excellent idea, and timely too - just in time for those last minute Christmas gifts.
