Virginia 30 Day Fund & Fairfax County NAACP Team Up To Fund Minority-Owned Small Businesses

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Virginia 30 Day Fund and the 

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Virginia 30 Day Fund and the Fairfax County NAACP announced today that they have launched a partnership to provide direct financial assistance to minority-owned small businesses in Northern Virginia that are struggling to meet payroll, preserve health coverage and save jobs as they await recently approved federal funding in light of the COVID-19 crisis.

Backed by a fundraising commitment by Fairfax County NAACP and the Virginia 30 Day Fundthe partnership will empower the Virginia 30 Day Fund to expand its reach even further as it works to provide much-needed financial assistance to a diverse array of Virginia small businesses. Since its April 6 launch, the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund has funded over 90 Virginia small businesses, and continues to review applications and fund additional Virginia small businesses each day.

As NBC Washington reports, «[o]ne of the businesses Snyder’s fund is helping support is the Springfield Collision Center, a family-owned collision repair shop. Thomas Kim’s father, Yong, opened the shop after immigrating to Northern Virginia from South Korea decades ago. ‘Kind of living the American dream,’ Kim said. ‘Opens up his own shop … taking care of his family.’ Taking care of the family is proving difficult now that business has slowed to a crawl … ‘We’re just looking for any help as our family’s livelihood is at stake,’ Kim said…»

Additionally, Fairfax NAACP President, Sean Perryman, and Executive Council Member Naveed Shah will join the Review and Funding Committee for this partnership with the Virginia 30 Day Fund.

«The small business community is in desperate need of support due to the pandemic. Fairfax County NAACP is excited to expand its effort to assist the community by partnering with the Virginia 30 Day Fund,» said Sean Perryman, Fairfax County NAACP President. «The money raised and given out will be crucial as minority-owned businesses make up 41 percent of the small business community. These forgivable loans will be a vital lifeline that will have a positive impact for employees and families throughout Northern Virginia

«Small businesses throughout Virginia are hurting right now through no fault of their own, so we want to do everything we can to reach every community in the Commonwealth to the greatest extent possible, and ultimately save as many Virginia jobs as possible,» Pete Snyder, the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund’s co-founder, said. «The Fairfax County NAACP’s partnership in this effort will be invaluable in helping the Virginia 30 Day Fund identify and aid even more struggling small businesses, especially those backed by minority business owners. We want to do everything we can to help so they can keep their employees on payroll and make it through this crisis.»

The Virginia 30 Day Fund application process is designed to be quick and easy for qualified small businesses in Virginia:

  • Visit va30dayfund.com.
  • Fill out a one-page form.
  • Submit a brief video (up to three minutes) about the business and its employees.
  • Approval will occur within three days, and approved businesses can expect an immediate transfer of funds.

Virginia businesses that qualify for assistance from the Fund are small businesses:

  • Employing three to 30 people;
  • Based in Virginia and operating for at least one year;
  • Owned and operated by a Virginia resident.

The funds dispersed to qualified businesses by the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund do not need to be repaid. If businesses that receive the Fund’s assistance do, at a later date, wish to «pay it forward» to another Virginia small business in need of assistance, they may do so by directing those dollars back to the Fund, which will disburse the money to another qualified Virginia business.

The Virginia 30 Day Fund was also designed to be «open-source,» so it could be replicated in other states and localities throughout the nation. The 30 Day Fund model has already been replicated by business leaders in Georgia, who just days ago, launched the Macon-Bibb 30 Day Fund and a 30 Day Fund is expected to be launched in Pennsylvania as soon as next week.

The global long fiber thermoplastics market size is expected to grow from USD 2.8billion in 2020 to USD 4.6 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 10.5%, during the forecast period.Owing to  anincrease in the demand for high-performance materials with properties, such as high strength-to-weight ratio, good tensile strength, and electrical conductivity, the global long fiber thermoplastics market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

PP resin comprises a major share of the long fiber thermoplastics market in terms of value and volume.

PP resin is a thermoplastic manufactured by combining propylene monomers. It is used in both consumer goods and industrial applications. Its unique properties and ability to adapt to various fabrication techniques make it a suitable material in a wide range of applications.

The injection molding process to account for the largest share in the global long fiber thermoplastics market during the forecast period in terms of value and volume.

Injection molding is a fast, high-volume, closed molding process that uses, most commonly, reinforced thermoplastics composites, such as nylon with chopped glass fiber. It is used for producing parts by injecting molten material into a mold. In this process, material for the part is fed into a heated barrel, mixed, and injected into a mold cavity. This process offers low-cost tooling, which is economical for low production volumes or for the production of large parts.

Glass fiber to have a significant market share in the global long fiber thermoplastics market during the forecast period.

Glass fiber is the most preferred and cost-effective reinforcement used for long fiber thermoplastics. Long glass fiber thermoplastic composites are manufactured through continuous filaments of fiber, which are melt-impregnated with thermoplastic polymer by the pultrusion process to create a high-performance bond. These are then cut into 1/2-inch (12 mm) composite pellets for convenient processing into net shapes via injection molding or extrusion processes. Glass fiber is commonly used as a reinforcing element in commercial and industrial composites.

The automotive end-use industry to account for the largest share in the global long fiber thermoplastics market during the forecast period in terms of value.

The strength-to-weight ratio of most of the long fiber thermoplastics is higher than that of steel and aluminum. The automotive industry needs to follow stringent regulations regarding fuel efficiency and weight reduction without compromising safety, performance, and processing efficiency. These requirements are fulfilled by the long fiber thermoplastics that provide material solutions for structural and semi-structural parts. They help in meeting requirements, such as weight reduction, structural performance, and maximum energy absorption. The manufacturing of cost-efficient parts and reliable mass production processes are enabled by the low processing cycle times of long fiber thermoplastics, which also increase their demand in the automotive industry.

Europe to account for the largest market share in the long fiber thermoplastics market during the forecast period.

Europe was the largest long fiber thermoplastics market, in terms of value, in 2019. The demand for these thermoplastics in automotive, electrical & electronics, and other industries is projected to improve due to product innovation and technological advances made in this sector.  These factors drive the demand for long fiber thermoplastics during the forecast period. 

 Key players in the Long Fiber Thermoplastics (LFT) Market include Celanese Corporation (US), SABIC (Saudi Arabia), Lanxess AG (Germany), BASF SE (Germany), Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings (Japan), PlastiComp Inc. (US), Daicel Polymer Ltd. (Japan), Asahi Kasei Corporation (Japan), RTP Company Inc. (US), and Solvay (Belgium).. These companies are involved in adopting various inorganic and organic strategies to increase their foothold in the long fiber thermoplastics market.
