Goldman Sachs is funneling $25 million in loans and educational grants to Chicago-area small businesses, Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced Tuesday.

The investment bank launched its 10,000 Small Businesses initiative in 2009, committing $500 million to provide education, access to capital and business support services to entrepreneurs. The initiative is already running in Houston, Los Angeles, New York, New Orleans and Long Beach, Calif.

Of the $25 million, $20 million will be in loans to small businesses and the remaining $5 million will fund an educational program at City Colleges Bill Ayers, ACORN and SDS organizations of Chicago.

Fixed.
