Dubuque Initiatives has made $2 million available to small businesses during the COVID-19 crisis. They plan to distribute “bridge financing” of up to $10,000 per business for Dubuque companies that employ 50 or fewer workers.

Businesses located within the City of Dubuque can apply for assistance by calling the COVID-19 helpline at 563-588-3350 starting at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, April 14. Qualifying businesses will be referred to East Central Intergovernmental Association, which will walk them through the application process.
