EDAWN has created this Major Investor Guide for two reasons: First, to

recognize you for your significant investment in the job creation program

at EDAWN and ensure that we have a ready resource to use to refer you to

the prospects that ask for information, visit the community, as well as our

existing companies that may ask EDAWN for a referral.

Secondly, you are encouraged to do business with fellow major investors.

These are the individuals who, like you, have invested significantly in

the economic vitality of our community. You are part of a select group

of community minded leaders that believe in the strength of our region

and are willing to put financial resources behind the programs that will

reshape and grow our local economy.

Please feel free to reach out to me or any one of our team members if you

need anything in the future. Your investment and involvement in EDAWN

is important and appreciated.

Thank you,

WE THINK LOCAL EDAWN

"We Think Local" The “We Think Local” program is a community initiative to build awareness of the economic benefits of doing business locally. This effort enhances the livability of our community, the stability and diversity of the local economy and the retention and expansion of local businesses, while increasing awareness of the personal, community and economic benefits of choosing to “Think Local” first.

There are several ways to participate in the “Think Local” initiative. Including:

• Purchase goods or services from local vendors and suppliers, and when needed, from on-line companies with a presence within the State of Nevada. Purchase from companies that hire local employees.

• Contract with companies that have a local presence • Hire local – Our region’s talent base is robust and diverse • Eat locally produced food when available – support growers, local distributors, and locally owned

food establishments. This also helps cut down on travel and carbon emissions • Support our local non-profits – They support us • Serve or otherwise engage and invest in our local community as a citizen and a volunteer

“Thinking Local” is really just a “mind-set” that helps retain wealth in our region. It benefits our economy, creates jobs, increases the tax base and it helps all of us.
