Greater Omaha Chamber Launches Midtown Small Business Resiliency Fund

The Greater Omaha Chamber launched a business resiliency fund to support target small businesses during streetcar construction. The Midtown Small Business Resiliency Fund will distribute about $1 million to qualifying businesses that have been most significantly impacted by utilities work to date and will be affected once rail construction begins. Funds for distribution were given to the Chamber by a donor. The first distributions started in mid-August and are intended for businesses most severely impacted in the corridor west of Turner Boulevard on Farnam Street.
