Loan Program Offers Up to $75,000 in Capital to Aid Recovery and Resilience
In continued response to the economic impact of the January 2025 Eaton Fire, Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Chair Kathryn Barger and the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) announced today that the application deadline for the Altadena Disaster Relief Small Business Loan Program has been extended to June 30, 2025.
The program offers loans of up to $75,000 to eligible small businesses in Altadena seeking to recover, rebuild, and retain local jobs. In addition, enhanced technical assistance resources will be made available on the program’s website (altadenabizrelief.lacda.org) to help applicants navigate the process and strengthen their submissions.
“Small businesses are essential to Altadena’s identity and economic vitality, so I want to ensure they have every opportunity to bounce back,” said Supervisor Kathryn Barger. “Extending the application deadline and expanding support tools will give more business owners the time and guidance they need to access this vital relief. I encourage every eligible business to apply and take advantage of this opportunity.”
To be eligible, businesses must operate a public-facing storefront in unincorporated ZIP codes 91001 or 91104, and have been in operation for at least six months prior to applying. FEMA assistance recipients are also eligible. Applications are reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis.
