The New Beginnings Loan Program helps you grow your business.
If getting approved for a loan felt out of reach, we’re here to help make it possible.
New Beginnings was created to support entrepreneurs and small businesses connected to the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa. We invest in job growth by working with local banks to make funding more accessible for business owners in Rolette County.
Whether you’re starting fresh or expanding, we help reduce barriers to business loans so our community can thrive.
New Beginnings partners with your local bank to help reduce the amount of cash you need up front. Your bank handles the loan and contacts us if support is needed.
Businesses in Rolette County that hire Turtle Mountain tribal members or descendants may qualify. The business doesn’t have to be tribally owned or on the reservation.
You can apply for a loan to fund equipment, real estate, construction, or working capital. We help make your loan more achievable by lowering the equity needed.
Start by meeting with your bank. If they need help, they’ll contact New Beginnings. You can also reach out to 701-477-3101 for business startup support.
