Small businesses throughout Baltimore will have more access to Paycheck Protection Program forgivable loans.

It's part of a partnership with the Opportunity Fund, a non-profit, small business microlender.

Businesses located in Baltimore City that didn't get a PPP loan in 2020 can apply for their first PPP loan through the Opportunity Fund's online application.

The last day to submit an application is March 31, 2021.

The Opportunity Fund hopes to provide PPP access to the smallest businesses -- especially sole proprietors, those without banking relationships, and those who missed out on the first round of PPP.
