</span><span lang="EN" style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:Georgia,serif">Across the U.S., small businesses that form the economic backbone of their communities now face immediate \u2013 and oftentimes, crushing \u2013 financial pressure due to COVID-19. Many forced
to shut down temporarily are at serious risk of never reopening. Even those that can still operate remotely face major revenue shortfalls. With little or no reserves to pay their expenses, many will have no choice but to lay off workers and close their doors
forever.</span><span lang="EN"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN" style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:Georgia,serif">Thanks to a $1 million grant from Sam\u2019s Club, LISC will provide the emergency assistance that small businesses desperately need to stay afloat. We will deploy grants to help them bridge
the financial gap, and deliver technical assistance to help them navigate the intricate web of public and private resources now available. LISC will focus these efforts on historically underserved communities\u2014especially those enterprises owned or led by women,
minorities and veterans, which often lack access to affordable capital.</span><span lang="EN"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
