LION, the Local Investing Opportunities Network, has updated and extended a recovery loan program for Jefferson County businesses and non-profits needing funding to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. The loan application and instructions are downloadable from the the LION website at http://L2020.org/lion/. A fast track process has been established to handle the applications.
LION is a network that connects business and non-profits seeking financing with over 60 local investors. Since 2006 LION members have invested in over 75 Jefferson County businesses and non-profits. LION members opted to initiate a new application route to provide emergency loans to as many non-profits and business as their members can afford.
LION welcomes inquires from people who would like to become a member and increase the resiliency of our local community. Information is available at http://L2020.org/lion/. LION is affiliated with Local 20/20 and EDC Team Jefferson.
