Albemarle County today announced more recipients from its Lift Grant relief initiative that provides grant funds to local businesses to assist with impacts due to COVID-19 and the public health response.
In this second funding round, 58 local businesses received a total of $2.3 million in relief. In the first round of this program announced in August 2020, more than 70 businesses received grants totaling $1.25 million.
“The coronavirus has had a devastating impact on public health. Many of our local businesses are struggling to continue to serve our community while protecting employees and meeting restrictions in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Albemarle County identified these grant funds to support our local businesses experiencing financial harm due to COVID-19.
Businesses applied for funds through the Community Investment Collaborative. Applications were considered based on qualitative and quantitative data using a scoring matrix. Applicants were required to provide proof of COVID-related impacts.
All funds for the Lift Grant program utilize funding received by Albemarle County through the CARES Coronavirus Relief Fund.
