Financial Literacy for Small Business Owners - SBA

April is Financial Literacy Month!

Financial Literacy for Small Business Owners

Whether you are new business owner, are thinking about starting a small business, or have an existing one you’d like to improve, join the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and its Resource Partners for a FREE, in-person session covering:

· The importance of managing your personal finances, including improving your credit score. This matters, especially if you are seeking to secure financing for your business!

· Basic Financial terminology and an overview of the financial documents necessary for building a successful business.

· Understanding your business cash flow and why you need to know your numbers!

· Counseling and funding resources available through the SBA

· What you’ll need before you apply and where/how to apply for Small Business Loans

This is a FREE in-person event to be held at Chicago's Harold Washington Library, in the Chicago Authors Room (7th Floor) on April 14, 2025. If you aren't able to attend this session, SBA will be hosting sessions at all four of Chicago's Regional Libraries this April. Registration is required and space is limited!
