LiftFund is urging small business owners affected by recent flooding in Kerr County and Comfort, Texas, to apply now for the remaining funds available through a disaster recovery loan program offering zero percent interest financing.
The program, established in partnership with The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, aims to help local businesses recover, rebuild and continue serving their communities following the flooding. The partnership allocated nearly $10 million for the Kerr County Small Business Recovery Program, and available funding is now running low as businesses across the region seek recovery support.
Eligible businesses may access loans with a zero percent interest rate, loan amounts up to $500,000 and 60-month repayment terms.
Businesses can use the funds for a variety of recovery-related expenses, including replacing lost inventory, covering temporary closure costs, flood-related cleanup and repairs, and essential business continuity and operational needs.
“Small businesses are the backbone of our local economy, and we want to ensure that every eligible business owner has the opportunity to access these resources before the funds are exhausted,” said Amy Hereford, president and CEO of LiftFund. “We encourage business owners who have been impacted by the flooding to apply as soon as possible.”
Businesses located in Kerr County or Comfort, Texas, and affected by the recent floods may be eligible to participate in the program.
Since its launch, the recovery fund has provided financial assistance to businesses working to restore operations, retain employees and continue serving customers during the recovery process.
Applications will continue to be accepted until all remaining funds have been committed.
LiftFund has distributed more than $14 million through 500 grants and loans across multiple programs that aid relief and recovery for small businesses in Kerr County and surrounding disaster-declared areas since July 4, 2025.
