Urban League Events

We understand that navigating the resources available to support your business in this critical time can be stressful and complicated.

In an effort to ease that burden, we are launching a new partnership with Goldman Sachs’ 10,000 Small Businesses program.  As a part of Goldman Sachs’ commitment to support small businesses impacted by COVID-19, they are facilitating Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans to eligible small businesses through Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and other mission-driven lenders all across the country. For businesses in our community, they are partnering with HOPE. CDFIs like HOPE are different than traditional banks given their mission to work with businesses that are often underserved by other financial institutions, or who may need additional technical assistance to navigate the loan application process successfully.

What this means: If you are a member of the Urban League community who has not yet applied for a PPP loan, you can Apply Here through HOPE.

Beyond capital, we know staying informed on what resources are available is crucially important. To address frequently asked questions, we will be hosting a webinar exclusively for the Urban League community with leaders from the Urban League, Goldman Sachs and HOPE on Thursday June 4th at 4:30pm ET. Please register and submit any questions here (case sensitive password: GSPPP20).For continued updates, please visit Goldman Sachs Small Business Resource Center. It includes a CARES Act Paycheck Protection Program Loans section that is updated regularly.
