Business Funding Referrals

Access to capital can be a powerful tool for growing a small business. While WEV is no longer directly providing business loans, we continue to support entrepreneurs by connecting you to trusted, mission-aligned lending partners.

If you’re looking for funding, we can help you take the next step.

We’ll Connect You to Trusted Lending Partners

WEV works closely with a small number of vetted lending organizations serving California small business owners. These partners specialize in providing fair, affordable capital and supportive lending practices – especially for entrepreneurs who may not qualify for traditional bank loans.

When you request a referral through WEV, you’re not starting from scratch. You’re being connected to organizations we trust and know well.

What to Expect from Our Lending Partners

Our trusted lending partners offer:

• Loan amounts ranging from $5,000 to $500,000
• Competitive interest rates, designed to be fair and affordable
• Flexible options for businesses at different stages of growth

Loan terms, rates, and eligibility vary by lender and are determined during the application process.

What Can Business Funding Be Used For?

Our lending partners can support financing needs such as:

• Increasing inventory
• Purchasing equipment
• Expanding or upgrading your space
• Scaling up for a new opportunity or contract
• Making health and safety improvements for customers and employees
