Bexar County businesses still hope to take advantage of COVID-19 business grants

SAN ANTONIO – Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff touted the county’s assistance to the business community throughout the COVID-19 pandemic during his state of the county address Wednesday.

The county has provided grants to 850 businesses so far. Though it has dedicated more than $16 million to help small businesses, not all that money has been spent, and many are still hoping to get a piece.

Small business grant programs that run through San Antonio for Growth on the Eastside (SAGE) and the MAESTRO Entrepreneur Center are currently ongoing, and applications for $3.75 million in grants specifically aimed at the bar and restaurant industry will be open for applications starting Oct. 26.
