Duke Energy Small Business Assistance Grants

Grantee Spotlight


WCF is proud to partner with Duke Energy to strengthen our local economy through the Small Business Assistance Grant program.


In November 2025, $30,000 was awarded to 13 small businesses in the Mason area.


We’re grateful to celebrate the fifth year of this impactful partnership.

"On behalf of the City of Mason, I want to express our sincere gratitude to Duke Energy, Warren County Foundation, SBDC, and MADE Chamber for supporting Mason small businesses with the Duke Energy Grant program. Your support has made a meaningful impact on our small business community, and we truly appreciate everything you have done to help these businesses thrive."


-Diana Nelson, Former Mayor, City of Mason
