Charleston County Nonprofit Assistance Application Opens
By: Charleston County Government
Charleston County nonprofit organizations can now apply for a one-time relief funding intended to provide reimbursements for funds spent on pandemic relief. The deadline to apply is Friday, May 13th, 2022. Approved applicants are eligible to receive up to $50,000. The goal of the pandemic relief program is to support community based nonprofit organizations that provided services to those impacted by COVID-19.
The following organizations are eligible to apply:
- Organizations that are recognized by the IRS as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization.
- Organizations with a primary physical location within Charleston County.
- Organizations which provide direct assistance to Charleston County’s residents experiencing hardships due to the pandemic.
The organization must be able to provide documentation they have helped the public since March 15, 2020, more than the amount for which they are applying minus any other pandemic-related assistance they have received. Services provided or reimbursed by Federal grants may not be counted.
For more information on the Nonprofit Pandemic Relief Grant and for assistance completing the application, there will be an application workshop held via Zoom on Wednesday, April 13, 2022, at 3:00 p.m. For more information and a link to the application and zoom workshop, please visit: https://www.charlestoncounty.org/departments/hnr/index.php
