The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is offering low-interest, long-term loans to small businesses in states and territories of up to $2 million each to provide assistance to businesses located in a declared disaster area as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. These loans are called “Economic Injury Disaster Loans” or EIDLs. These loans are intended to provide relief from substantial economic injury caused directly by the disaster to fund working capital needs and help small businesses survive until normal operations resume after a disaster.
