The SBA is an excellent funding resource for business owners who cannot easily find funding through conventional funding sources. Banks like Hampden Bank are ready to help you through the process. Whether you need money to open a store, need money to launch a startup business, or are raising money as working capital for an existing entity, the SBA is there for you.
