The U.S. Small Business Administration in partnership with the Hawaiʻi Small Business Development Center has opened an SBA Business Recovery Center in Kailua-Kona to provide services to small businesses impacted by the Maui wildfires.

The Kailua-Kona opening follows a recently expanded declaration by the Biden Administration to allow small businesses in all five of Hawaiʻi’s counties to access wildfire-related disaster assistance.

“Due to the severe property damage in Maui and economic losses the Maui wildfires inflicted on small businesses in all of Hawaii, we want to provide every available service to help get them back on their feet,” said Director Jeffrey Lusk of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Disaster Field Operations Center‑West in a press release. Lusk continued, “The center will provide a one-stop location for businesses to access a variety of specialized help. SBA customer service representatives will be available to meet individually with each small business owner to explain how an SBA disaster loan can help finance their recovery,”

No appointment is necessary. All services are provided free of charge. Further information on the center can be found below:
