Donate to Vilas County EDC

"The Vilas County EDC has done so much to give us a reason to believe we can do this, we can grow our business. They’ve provided us with the data and guidance to move forward."
-Patrick Indermuehle, Conover Gardens

You are the reason Patrick and Robin Indermuehle of Conover Gardens feel like they can meet the challenges of running and growing their business.

At the VCEDC, our mission is to grow a strong, diverse economy here in Vilas County, and it’s donors like you who make this work possible.

You make it possible for Patrick and Robin – and dozens of other local small business owners – to get the practical no-cost business guidance, education, and networking opportunities they need to succeed in Vilas County. And you make it possible for the VCEDC to do the broader economic development work that sets our county up for long-term, sustainable prosperity.

Today, I’m writing to our valued partners to share how we’ve been working to fulfill our mission in 2024 and to invite you to invest in this work in 2025.

• Jobs retained
• More local spending
• Support for the businesses you know and love
• Higher real estate values
• More new businesses

There’s still so much more to do to build a stronger Northwoods economy.

Local business owners are depending on us to have the resources they need when they contact us. Your donation makes it possible.

The broadband and redevelopment projects that are laying a foundation for Vilas County’s long-term financial prosperity require time and attention. Your donation makes it possible for us to see them through and to undertake new ones!

Will you support the VCEDC as it works to support Vilas County business owners and entrepreneurs and build a stronger Northwoods economy?

When you give to the Vilas County EDC, you’re making an investment in the community you love. You’re supporting the businesses you rely on, providing improved quality of life for all Vilas County residents, growing the tax base, and setting the foundation for more development.

"In my opinion, the money that we Vilas County taxpayers invest in the VCEDC provides one of the best returns on investment that we get from the County."
-John Hanson, Manitowish Waters Town Chair
