Help Us Make History
With immense opportunity comes an even greater responsibility. Economic Growth Corporation approaches the redevelopment of Shimer Square with the utmost seriousness and dedication. We enter this endeavor with unwavering focus, setting forth realistic expectations and timelines while maintaining a steadfast commitment to achieving tangible results. We invite you to stand alongside us in this transformative journey, to envision the possibilities, and together, turn our shared vision into a vibrant reality.
Shimer Square’s capital campaign embodies the comprehensive revitalization of the entire campus over many years. This extraordinary opportunity extends beyond mere investment—it’s about shaping the broader landscape. It involves transforming historic properties into safe, high-quality housing and unlocking new commercial leasing opportunities. It’s about fostering an environment that nurtures entrepreneurs, startups, and artisans, empowering them to thrive. Moreover, it's a catalyst for job creation, injecting vitality into the community and propelling us toward a brighter future.
Our goal for Shimer Square’s capital campaign is $2,500,000. Contributions to the capital campaign will serve as the cornerstone for unlocking further redevelopment opportunities, propelling us closer to our vision of revitalizing every corner of the campus. In the face of rising costs associated with construction and stabilization, these capital contributions will play a pivotal role in bridging the financial gap that cannot be addressed by traditional financing or grant funding alone. They will serve as a vital resource, providing the necessary financial foundation to propel our redevelopment efforts forward with momentum and purpose. Together, through our collective generosity and commitment, we can ensure that Shimer Square realizes its full potential as a beacon of community revitalization and opportunity. Join us in making a profound and lasting impact on Shimer Square's future.
It enables the dream of Shimer Square to move forward as planned. It will be a win for Illinois. It will be a win for the region. Most importantly, it will be a win for Mount Carroll.
