Economic Development
LISC has developed an inclusive economic development framework that expands the ability of people, places, and businesses to contribute to equitable prosperity, so that all are able to thrive. Our work creates accessible opportunities for people to find jobs that increase their income and assets, and at the same time, it grows businesses and rebuilds neighborhood economies through integrated strategies that develop talent, districts and businesses.
LISC Virginia and the Longwood SBDC are partnering to provide 0% interest and no-fee loans from $10,000 to $50,000 to small businesses in across the entire Richmond and Petersburg region.
LISC and the VA Hispanic Chamber of Commerce are providing 0% loans to small business members of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce to help them grow, create jobs, and benefit the commuinty.
