Small Business Recovery and Resiliency Program

Two grants are available to eligible businesses in Irving

The Recovery Grant provides up to $15,000 in direct financial assistance for eligible small businesses that demonstrate economic hardship due to the COVID-19 public health emergency. 

The Resiliency Grant covers the costs for eligible applicants to receive business services necessary to help prevent, prepare for and respond to the disruption and impacts of economic shock. 

Funding for both grants is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Applicants can apply for both grants, if eligible, within one application. Funding for the Recovery Grant may be exhausted sooner than funding for the Resiliency Grant. Therefore, applicants eligible for both grants may only receive a Resiliency Grant. Those that do receive a Recovery Grant must agree to receive and participate in the Resiliency Grant.
