Opportunity Alamance Loan Program

 

The Alamance Chamber, the Alamance County Economic Development Foundation, Self-Help Credit Union and the Alamance Community Foundation have partnered to establish a revolving loan program just for Alamance County small businesses. Recognizing the value that small businesses bring to the community, these organizations want to provide a financial tool to help small business owners access the capital they need. This program aims to have a strong focus on minority and women-owned businesses, but all are welcome to apply.
