The Nevada County Relief Fund announced its second round of grant awards, totaling $200,000, supporting eleven “safety-net” nonprofits in western Nevada County, who are all providing a life line to our neighbors most in need, and twenty-five small businesses from throughout the county heavily impacted by COVID-19.
The Relief Fund received 102 applications from small businesses for its micro-grants up to $5,000 each, and over two dozen applications for the “safety-net” grants ranging from $5,000 to $20,000 each. The combined requests totaled over $850,000. To date, the Relief Fund has raised $447,218 and disbursed $410,000.
