PPP - THE LATEST
Like others across the country, we are learning as much as we can about the second round of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). It remains unclear whether any Alaska lenders will participate in the first draw, which opened on Monday, January 11. There are Alaska lenders preparing to take applications for the second draw. To get the most current information, we recommend attending three upcoming webinars:
1. Alaska Small Business Development Center Weekly Briefing
SBDC is hosting their weekly briefing today, January 13 at 2:00 pm. Foraker staff will be on the line and PPP will be the focus. Register here.
2. National Council of Nonprofits Nonprofit Town Hall
Join the National Council today, January 13 at 11:00 am AKST for information on the new law. Learn about provisions that will expire in just a few weeks and others that will last only a few months. Find out, too, which provisions will help your nonprofit, and what you need to do to take advantage of them. The webinar is free. Register here.
3. PPP Reopens: Is My Organization Eligible?
Join Foraker and guest speaker Jon Bittner, Director of the Small Business Development Center on January 21 at 3:00 pm to learn how to navigate the program in Alaska. Register here.
We also encourage you to review two SBA publications that provide additional information on the first and second draws for the current round of PPP.
