COVID-19 Business Community Update

 

Small Business COVID-19 RELIEF Grant Program

 

Maryland Department of Commerce will begin accepting applications for the Small Business COVID-19 RELIEF Grant Program starting March 30 at 9 am EST through April 6 at 11:59 pm EST. 

To support Maryland’s small businesses facing continued financial impacts from the novel coronavirus, the state established through bipartisan legislation the new Maryland Small Business COVID-19 RELIEF Grant Program in 2021 with $10 million in state RELIEF Act funding.

The grant offers working capital to assist certain Maryland small businesses with disrupted operations due to COVID-19. Grant assistance is intended to provide interim relief complementing actions with its bank, business interruption insurance, and financial partners.  

Funding is extremely limited and may ultimately result in approval on a first-come, first-served basis. The application process will be open for a limited period, and Commerce anticipates substantial interest in this program. We encourage you to apply as soon as applications become available.
