Small Business Recovery Grants Available for Businesses Impacted by Tropical Storm Helene
Asheville’s small businesses have shown incredible resilience in the months following Tropical Storm Helene, but for many, recovery is still ongoing. That’s why Asheville Downtown Association is proud to partner with Mountain BizWorks, ArtsAVL and Eagle Market Streets as an outreach partner to help connect businesses with critical recovery resources.
Through this partnership, ADA is helping spread awareness about available grant opportunities, directing businesses toward the application process, and connecting business owners with technical assistance resources that can help strengthen applications and navigate recovery.

We know not everyone can attend live informational sessions, so we recently partnered with fellow outreach organizations to host an informational webinar for businesses interested in learning more about the program.

The webinar covers:
• Who may qualify for recovery grant funding
• What types of impacts may be eligible
• Application timelines and expectations
• Technical assistance resources available to applicants
• Questions from business owners and community members
If your business—or a business you know—experienced impacts from Tropical Storm Helene, we encourage you to explore these resources and apply if eligible.
Recovery happens when communities show up for one another. We’re asking Downtown businesses, property owners, stakeholders, and community partners to help us spread the word so these resources reach the people who need them most.
Questions? Need help getting connected with resources? Reach out to our team—we’re here to help.
Together, we continue building a stronger, more resilient Downtown.
