Isabella Bank Invests $15,000 in Newly Formed Big Rapids Regional Chamber

Isabella Bank has pledged $15,000 to support the Big Rapids Regional Chamber, a newly formed organization created to strengthen the local economy and business community.

The chamber was established in September 2025 following the merger of the Mecosta County Development Corporation and the Mecosta County Chamber of Commerce. By combining resources, the chamber aims to amplify the region’s voice, energize the local economy, strengthen community leadership and accelerate progress. Its focus areas include advocacy, economic growth, community engagement, and collaborative partnerships. “Isabella Bank is committed to supporting initiatives that strengthen our communities and create opportunities for growth,” said David Seppala, Regional President at Isabella Bank. “The Big Rapids Regional Chamber represents an exciting new chapter for the region, and we’re proud to help bring this vision to life.”

Chamber Chair Tyler Schuberg said Isabella Bank’s investment will help advance its mission. “Isabella Bank has been a long-time supporter of our local businesses and communities,” Schuberg said. “Their investment will help us advocate for current and future businesses in our region.”
