Malagari hosting virtual town hall on financial aid available to small business owners

LANSDALE, July 7 – State Rep. Steve Malagari, D-Montgomery, invites area business owners to his virtual town hall at 6 p.m. this Thursday on Pennsylvania’s new Small Business Assistance Grant Program.

Malagari will be joined by community leaders Ken Scott of Beech Capital and Jim Burnett of West Philadelphia Financial Services Institution to discuss requirements, eligibility and how business owners can apply for a small business grant. Grants of up to $50,000 are available for operating costs to help businesses recover from COVID-19.

“I know that local business owners were seriously impacted by the COVID-19 crisis, so I want to do all that I can to connect them with the aid that is readily available to them,” Malagari said. “Two hundred million dollars in grants are available and I want to make sure our community gets our fair share.”

The meeting will be held through Zoom. Those interested can log in with the following credentials:
