BRITISH COLUMBIA – Attention accountants, financial planners, bookkeepers, and lawyers!
Today is the LAST day to apply for the Small and Medium-Sized Business Recovery Grant, for up to $2,000 from the province.
The BC Small and Medium-Sized Business Recovery Grant program is seeking interested parties such as accountants, financial planners, bookkeepers, and lawyers to assess the solvency of businesses and help develop recovery plans (template to be provided).
Small Business BC matches the business to the service provider who invoices SBBC for reimbursement for services, up to a maximum of $2,000 (including taxes) per grant recipient at their normal hourly rate of up to $250/hour.
Service providers must participate in a 45-minute webinar to ensure they are fully briefed on the objectives of the program, its timelines, and the importance of a consistent approach.
Once businesses are verified as being eligible for the program, they will be matched with professional service providers through Small Business BC, wherever possible based on location, sector, and spoken language needs. Businesses will receive a detailed summary of the next steps and requirements of their participation.
