Connecting our communities with financial assistance is more important than ever during the pandemic. We provide small businesses owners who have been affected by COVID with help applying to city and state opportunities, including loans and grants. Asian immigrant business owners have increased access to the $800 million in Small Business Pandemic Recovery funding distributed by New York State as a result of our collaboration with Empire State Development. We encourage Mandarin and Korean-speaking business owners to get in touch with our staff about this funding opportunity.
