Pay It Forward Onawa
Pay It Forward Onawa is our local version of Shark Tank. Ideas are submitted in advance by using the form below accompanied with a 2-minute video. We will then narrow the submissions down to 2 finalists who could win $500 to $1,000 each. If you would like to do a presentation in person instead of a video, you can set up a time with Jenn Collison.
What ideas are accepted?
Business or product ideas for Onawa. The sky is the limit! You must be 19 years or older to submit an idea. Not 19 or older? If your idea is accepted, we’ll just need your parent’s permission. We encourage students, locals, retirees and anywhere in between to submit an idea. Be creative, innovative and think about how this idea could thrive in Onawa and better our community. Onawa is a community where you can do anything, start anything or recreate something you’ve seen somewhere else. We just want those that want to pursue those ideas to step up and submit!
You don't need a business plan to submit your idea. Your idea could be in infant stages and you want to see what others think or it could be at maturity and you just need a little seed money (and resources) to get your idea off the ground!
Your idea can be in any of the following categories:
- Retail
- IT / Tech / Web Services
- Service
- Product Invention
- Food Service / Food-Related
Please fill out the form below and send into the Chamber with your 2 minute or less video for our committee to vote on. Once the committee has reviewed all submissions, the winners will be announced as well as how much each winner is granted. The deadline to submit your information is July 1, 2022. Everything can be e-mailed to [email protected]. The winners will be announced on Sunday, July 17th after the Monona County Fair Parade. Location at the Fairgrounds will be determined at a later date.
All information can be found on www.onawachamber.com under the Pay It Forward tab. You can also contact Jenn Collison at 712-423-1801 or e-mail [email protected]
