Our team has been working hard to keep up with the requests and move them through the process quickly. To assist businesses, we have reduced our interest rate and have eliminated the closing fee on these emergency loans. We are also structuring the loans with favorable terms. If you need a small loan to get you through this period until stimulus money kicks in, then please contact Sandie Cataldo at scataldo@northcentralmass.com or Brendan Hannen atbhannen@northcentralmass.com. We are in the process of recapitalizing our fund to ensure that we can continue to meet the needs of local businesses. Also, for those of you that may require a larger loan, the SBA Disaster Loan Program can now provide up to $10 million dollars;<\/p>\n<p><b>Video Message: <\/b>If you have not seen it, then I would encourage you to view a special video we premiered on March 22 on the Chamber\u2019s Facebook page.

However, as a safety precaution, we have closed the office temporarily and will limit access to the public. We will be available by appointment at the office to provide services that need to be made in person, such as certificates of export for our manufacturers and insurance related matters. We will also be performing loan closings at the office related to our Emergency Loan Program. Except for these instances, staff will work remotely per the protocols that we have in place. Please contact us if you need to schedule an appointment;<\/p>\n<p><b>Equipment Donations:<\/b> All four of our hospital systems &#8211; Health Alliance, Heywood, Nashoba Medical and Emerson \u2013 reached out to us and requested help securing additional personal protective equipment (PPE).\u00a0 We have been proactive in our outreach to businesses to secure donations and we have also reached out to most of the region\u2019s manufacturers to inquire if they can modify their production to assist with producing these products. We have received a tremendous response. Thank you to all of you that reached out. It has been very inspiring to see our members rally together to offer any help they could during this time of crisis. Please contact us for more information on how to donate items or if your company is interested in producing PPE items.
