Webinar: SBA Resources for All Businesses Impacted by Helene
A critical update with the U.S. Small Business Administration on Resources for Helene Recovery
Around 25% of businesses fail after a disaster. To ensure North Carolina businesses get the timely answers they need, the NC Chamber is hosting a complimentary webinar on Thursday, Oct. 10: “SBA Resources for All Businesses Impacted by Helene.”
Every business (any size) within the declared areas, private nonprofit organization, or resident affected by Helene can apply online or at the opened Business Recovery Centers (BRCs) managed by SBA or Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) managed by FEMA. A full list of counties in the declared areas is at the bottom of this email.
It’s helpful to start this process immediately. You do not have to wait for insurance coverage determinations or claims denials to apply for SBA programs. The application filing deadline for physical damage is Wednesday, Nov. 27 and economic injury is Monday, June 30.
This programming is offered on a complimentary basis to all. Please share it with anyone in your network who might benefit from SBA resources.
