This initiative is specifically tailored to assist individuals and business owners in their recovery efforts from the extensive physical and economic damage caused by the severe storm.

Beginning on Monday, October 29th, 2024, representatives from the Small Business Administration will be present at the Giles County Fire and Rescue Pulaski Station, which is located at 120 Jimmy Suggs Drive, Pulaski, TN 38478. They will be available to help those interested in applying for these low-interest loans. The SBA staff will be on-site until November 9th, 2024, and will operate from Monday through Saturday, with hours set from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

This initiative presents a significant opportunity for individuals and businesses affected by the tornado to secure the financial assistance necessary for rebuilding homes, repairing businesses, and mitigating economic losses.
