Dr. Amanda and Randy Craft, owners of Animal Haven in Little Falls, Minnesota

“They care and they want you to succeed. If you want to put in the work, they will help you do it. They’ll put just as much work into finding the solution for you to succeed.” – Randy Craft, Co-Owner of Animal Haven

Dr. Amanda and Randy Craft had an interest in purchasing a local veterinary clinic but didn't know where to start and had concerns about putting their home up for collateral to access needed financing. The Entrepreneur Fund provided them with advice and guidance, and ultimately partnered with Pine County Bank, Minnesota Business Finance Corporation, Morrison County Community Development, the City of Little Falls and Region Five to secure a financing package that worked for them. Their new business continues to grow and thrive today.
