If you missed the Intersect Fund’s Holiday Bazaar held at the New Brunswick Hyatt December 10th, not to worry. Their clients plan to be in business for a long time to come.
The Intersect Fund is the brainchild of Joe Shure and Rohan Mathew, graduates of Rutgers University. While editors at the Daily Targum, the student-run Rutgers newspaper, they watched many local businesses struggle with the changing demographics that New Brunswick’s revitalization program had brought.
Joe and Rohan saw an opportunity to apply some of the skills they had learned at Rutgers and help their community. With a small grant from Magyar Bank in September of 2008, the Intersect Fund was born.
