SENCA IDA Program Helps Falls City Business
07/11/2013

(KTNC) - A grand opening ceremony was held at a new Falls City business Wednesday.  Stephanie’s Epic Cakes, at 1712 Stone Street, opened on June 8th and has been doing a brisk business, selling cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and other desserts. 
 The business’ owner, Stephanie Wendtlandt, received some help getting the business going from a new program of the Southeast Nebraska Community Action Partnership.  It’s called the Individual Development Account, or I-D-A, program, and it provides financial assistance for people looking to start a business.  SENCA Executive Director Vicky McNealy explains.  (play audio   :27)
