I am writing on behalf of the Downers Grove Economic Development Corporation (DGEDC) and the Downers Grove Visitors Bureau. Because of the COVID-19 crisis, this is a very difficult time for our families, our neighbors, our businesses, and our community.

I wanted to reach out and provide an update on the DGEDC. As you may know our staff has been working remotely.  I am pleased to announce that our staff is now back working in the office.

If you are a local business, or a company considering locating in Downers Grove, the DGEDC is here to assist you. There are links to several business resources and updated information regarding the COVID-19 crisis, on our website: dgedc.com. These links include state and federal loan programs, such as the Paycheck Protection Program, and the SBA Disaster Loan Program. We will continue to add additional links to our website. The Village of Downers Grove website ( downers.us) is another source for up to date local information.

Take care and stay well. We are all in this together.
