METRO SMALL GRANT PROGRAM OFFERS SUPPORT FOR GROUPS HIT BY COVID-19

The Metro Council COVID-19 Community Support Fund replaces the Metro Council’s traditional sponsorship program, which historically supported community partners related to Metro’s core business. The retooled program will offer up to $34,000 in grants, with individual awards ranging up to $2,500. Funds will be distributed to applicants who provide services within the Metro region, and funds will be balanced between the three counties within Metro. The program will prioritize non-profits that serve high-risk/vulnerable populations and advance opportunities and support for communities of color.

Timeline: Due October 15, 2020.
