Through loans of $1,000-$25,000, UMLF is able to help people with low to moderate incomes supplement their earnings. Loans are designed to help people who cannot qualify for traditional small business loan. Whether loan are used for inventory, equipment, payroll, or other costs, the UMLF understands that small business owners need access to money but often can’t qualify for bank loans because they lack a business history, sufficient collateral or have limited or poor credit.
