Loan Spotlight: John & Shelley Pippin of Brewnuts

Brewnuts is the brainchild of two Clevelanders, John & Shelley Pippin, who decided to combine their three favorite things – Cleveland, craft beer, and donuts – into one, and make the food and beer lover’s ultimate guilty pleasure: craft-beer-based donuts.

HFLA of NEO’s Letter to Senator Portman

HFLA of NEO Board president, Lisa Arlyn Lowe recently sent the following letter to Ohio Senator Rob Portman in support of his opposition to the health care bill currently before the Ohio Senate.
