Paycheck Protection Program loans to local nonprofit housing organizations

By Lynda Carson - July 12, 2020

Oakland - Reportedly, through the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), and loans made under the CARES Act, the federal government provided around $659 billion to banks for low-interest loans to companies and nonprofit organizations because of the economic disaster created by the coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic. The Small Business Administration is administering the PPP program.

According to the NON PROFIT MEGAPHONE website, in part it reads, “This program offers nearly all nonprofits a loan for 2.5x your average monthly payroll expenses (max of $10m). As long as your organization spends the loaned money on payroll, mortgage payments, rent and utilities, and you maintain your payroll, the entire loan amount can be forgiven, converting it into a grant. No personal guarantee or collateral is required.”

Additionally, according to ProPublica in part they state, “Companies and nonprofit organizations that receive PPP loans may have the loans forgiven if they meet certain criteria, including not laying off employees during an 8-week period covered by the loan. Applicants must attest in their application that the loans are necessary for their continuing operation.”

In recent months, reportedly ProPublica has joined several major news organizations to sue the federal government in an effort to force the government to disclose the names of companies that received loans through the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). This was after the government delayed and refused to release the loan information to the public.

ProPublica and other news organizations won the lawsuit to force the Trump regime to release the names of some of the companies/organizations that received taxpayer money through the PPP.

Additionally, after winning their lawsuit, ProPublica created a data base and a tracking search engine that may be found by clicking here. This will help to find some companies that received loans through the PPP.

Below are some Bay Area nonprofit housers / affordable housing developers that were in the tracking data base provided by ProPublica. The exact loan amounts were not listed. They were listed as the minimum amount received, up to the maximum amount the entities may have received.
