What is the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)?
The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) is a federal relief program established by Congress and implemented by the U.S. Treasury Department and the Small Business Administration (SBA). Loans are designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on payroll.
Forgiveness of the loans is provided if all employee retention criteria are met and the funds are used for eligible expenses.
Ambler Savings Bank is here to help local businesses, both customers and non-customers, apply for PPP loans to help keep their business in operation during the pandemic. We are open for in-person appointments. Contact us today!
