Roberto Barragan, executive director of CCEDA, mentioned that during the COVID-19 pandemic, the government issued many financial subsidies, but many businesses were unable to apply immediately because they did not know the details. Therefore, he was excited to see that a service provider team like CSC Lending, that is deeply connected with the community has become a bridge between the locals and the government. It not only provides multilingual services, but also understands the ethnic cultures. In addition to assisting in applying for government grants and assistance programs, CSC Lending can also provide credit credit, resulting in not only the creation of wealth, but also in an increase in employment opportunities.
