In the past year of working at the Chamber, I haven’t been more excited about a press release than this one! The Texarkana Regional Chamber of Commerce Foundation, along with several other local foundations and businesses, has raised $75,000 to assist small businesses in the community. The COVID-19 Business Support Program will help Chamber member businesses with less than 30 full-time employees with a grant equaling no more than $1,000. Companies can use the funding for personal protection equipment, utility bills, such as gas, water/sewer, electricity, internet, and phone services, or other significant business operating needs such as rent.
The grant application is on our website: www.texarkana.org If anyone would like to donate to the fund, they can contact me at nhaywood@texarkana.org
