COVID-19 Emergency Resources

EMERGENCY RESOURCES COVID-19

Below is the a list of news and resources for San Francisco based small businesses and non-profits regarding the COVID-19 outbreak. While the GGBA is a member-centric organization, the resources listed below are for everyone, regardless of membership status, as we are all in this together. 

There are many opportunities and resources specifically for LGBTBE Certified Business. For companies not yet certified, now is a great time to do so as that may open a wealth of opportunities and resources to you.

To start the process, or for more information on becoming a Certified LGBTBE, go to https://www.nglcc.org/get-certified

This list will be updated regularly, though is by no means 100% complete or up-to-date as we are an all volunteer Board of Directors.

If you are able to provide services to others in need at time, or if you’d like to share how the Covid-19 has affected your business email us at covid19@ggba.com 

If you know of a resource which should be added to this page, please email us at covid19@ggba.com
