MCBL COVID-19 Update

Aloha,

MCBL is closely monitoring developments of the ongoing spread of coronavirus (COVID-19). We have a responsibility to consider health crises that may affect areas of our reach and wanted to share an update on MCBL programming and services in light of this situation.

MCBL Center and Programming

With an abundance of caution being exercised by the federal, state and local authorities regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, MCBL has decided to take precautions to keep our close knit community as safe as possible. In addition to increasing the frequency and emphasis on daily cleaning and sanitizing of our areas, we have also taken this time to review our business and leadership programming.

As a result, MCBL will be postponing all workshops, meetings, and gatherings through April 3, 2020. We are working diligently on building our remote systems to offer courses and programming online in the near future.

SBA Small Business Disaster Relief Lending

The U.S. Small Business Administration has announced small business lending opportunities in the wake of COVID-19. The SBA’s Economic Injury Disaster Loans offer up to $2 million in assistance for a small business. These loans can provide vital economic support to small businesses to help overcome the temporary loss of revenue they are experiencing.

For more information, please visit the SBA’s website here.

We appreciate your patience during this time. Our priority is and has always been maintaining the health and safety of our staff and our clients. While we remain open at this time, we advise that all individuals follow the precautions set by the CDC, making sure to wash your hands regularly and avoid larger crowds when possible. If you have any questions, please contact us. Mahalo!
