MCALLEN – Many Rio Grande Valley businesses have modified the way they operate in order to help slow the spread of COVID-19.

Local gym owner TJ Garza is one of many business-owners who have to partially or completely shut their doors, making revenue hard or impossible to come by.

The Small Businesses Association is offering up to $2 million in assistance, interest rates are nearly 4% for businesses and just under 3% for non-profits.

Garza says he is going to rely on his online trainings and nutrition side of the business for now but adds he’s happy help is there if he needs it.
