Busy Breathers LLC

Words cannot express how grateful I am that Northeastern Colorado Revolving Loan Fund believed in my vision in bringing a product to market just as much as I did. If it had not been for NCRLF I would of never received the funding to take my prototype that started out as a drawing on a piece of paper to an actual product that is now sold nationwide and has been for over four years now. My Award winning Busy Breathers Deluxe Oxygen Backpack is sold at local Colorado Walgreens, Walgreens.com, Drugstore.com and many other companies that sell oxygen supply products.

I had tried numerous avenues to get the funding I needed to place the order for my first production run but couldn’t find a bank or private investor that would loan me the money. I didn’t meet much of the criteria needed to receive traditional funding and that is when the Northeastern Colorado Revolving Loan Fund came to my rescue. I can remember the phone call that I received from Dan Simmons saying “He felt like taking a risk and believed in my product”, just like it was yesterday! It was one of the best phone calls I have ever received! It was always a pleasure to work with Dan and Valerie. If I ran up against issues along the way all I had to do was call them and let them know what was going on. I could go on and on about my experience with NCRLF but bottom line is if it hadn’t been for them Busy Breathers wouldn’t be.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Sincerely, Michelle Staley

I started AnywhereCam back in 2020 with one simple goal: provide high quality, durable, and easy to use surveillance cameras for anyone, anywhere they need it. After 2 years of R&D, we started to sell to the public and the response was greater than we had imagined. After analyzing and forecasting the next 12-24 months, I felt that our current financial situation left us unprepared to handle rapid growth and financial demands that were quickly approaching. Thankfully NCRLF helped me secure the capital necessary to properly grow AnywhereCam. Valerie and Andrea were wonderful to work with and made the paperwork and the entire process very streamlined and simple, which is crucial to me as a small business owner with many hats and not enough hours in the day. Thank you NCRLF!

Lorenzo Apothecary officially opened in October 2017, which was started by David Lorenzo. I wanted to provide a pharmacy that was there for the customer. I wanted to provide service to the customer without hassle and service that was friendly and without a long wait, as well as other options for customers than what is currently available such as bioidentical hormonal compounds. I enjoy being able to greet the customers as they enter the store and offer the best service and best prices in town. I was born and raised in Sterling. I became a registered pharmacist in 1994. I am proud to have had this opportunity to have the vision, design and open this pharmacy and to be the first accredited UCAP / NABP compounding pharmacy in northeast Colorado. I reached out to the Northeast Colorado Revolving Loan Fund because I liked the small-town, friendly service know how. They were an easy group of people to address with my vision and expectations. They listened. I would highly recommend them for any small business opportunity. David Lorenzo, Owner
