For Small Businesses and Non-profit Organizations:
Many businesses and organizations will experience a loss of revenue during the crisis, due to reduction or suspension of business operations, or other interruptions and uncertainties related to funding sources. The Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency and the Baker-Polito Administration are working closely with the SBA to activate the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) program, which would provide assistance to eligible businesses and non-profits impacted by COVID-19. The first step in this process is to meet a minimum threshold of affected businesses within Massachusetts. To do this, affected small businesses and non-profits should download, complete, and submit the SBA EIDL Worksheet and Instructions to expedite activation of the EIDL program (available online at this link). Completed forms may be submitted by email to Disaster.Recovery@mass.gov or by fax to 508-820-1401.
