Wayne Business Needs Your Help To Get Grant

CPC Designs, a children's clothing line, wants to apply for a Chase and Living Social small business grant.

Caroline Linz, Carrie Grau and Gaby Evers, all of Wayne, are the creators and owners of CPC Designs, a clothing line for children. They need your vote before June 30 to help them become eligible for a small business grant.

Chase and Living Social are awarding twelve $250,000 grants to small businesses, and CPC Designs wants to apply for a grant.

If awarded the grant CPC Designs could open a retail store in Wayne, hire a public relations firm, hire two employees, attend more trade shows to increase their wholesale business, give more to local and national causes, and use their Philadelphia-based manufacturers to produce a greater volume of goods.
