Cast Your Vote and Help East Lansing Win $25,000

Intuit's Love a Local Business program gives love to the nation's favorite small businesses in the form of cash grants. This month, Intuit is giving away $50,000 in grants to the two cities that love local business the most.

At the end of June, the two cities that nominated the most small businesses will be awarded 10 grants worth $5,000 each. The $5,000 grants will be awarded to five small business entrants selected at random from each of the two winning cities. Intuit will also donate $1,000 to each of the two winning cities' Chambers of Commerce. Cities are defined by ZIP Code.

Intuit recently invested an additional $1 million in its highly successful Love a Local Business grant program to continue to support small business job creation at the local level.

East Lansing is currently ranked in the top 10, so Intuit encourages fans of local businesses in East Lansing to nominate their favorites at www.lovealocalbusiness.com to help East Lansing win $25,000 in cash grants for its small businesses.

Nominations are open through Thursday, June 30.
