Ignite Eastland’s Comeback!

Eastland Ignite is a partnership between the City of Refuge GoodLife Foundation and the City of Columbus Clean & Safe Corridors program, created to strengthen and revitalize the Eastland business corridor. 

The initiative focuses on improving safety, beautification, customer traffic, and overall business growth — all guided by the voices of local business owners.

Eastland Ignite makes participation simple and meaningful. Through surveys, outreach, and listening sessions, business owners help identify the corridor’s top needs and shape the improvements that matter most.

What to Expect

Business owners will receive multiple ways to share input — including a short Google Form, QR code access, mailed postcards, and in‑person visits. This ensures every owner has a chance to participate and be heard.

Grant Opportunity

Business owners who participate in the survey and readiness steps will have the opportunity to qualify for a business grant up to $10,000, with awards issued January–February 2027.
