Dear
Here is a summary of the current Covid-19 relief programs and grants available for Ohio Small Businesses.
County Grants Available through Valley Partners:
These grants are at the county level and are not the same as the state grant. See below for more details on the state grant.
CARES 4 Trumbull, the grant program to assist small businesses in Trumbull County, is now available to county businesses.
Each grant up to $10,000 will be awarded on a reimbursement basis for funds expensed on eligible items incurred from March 01, 2020 through December 11, 2020.
The state of Ohio has created a $37.5 million fund to help bars and restaurants that have been hurt by the COVID-19 pandemic, called the Bar and Restaurant Assistance Fund.
If your business has been affected by the pandemic, be sure to apply! If your business qualifies, you can apply for this new grant program even if you also applied for/received the Mahoning County Small Business Relief Grant. This is a different grant.
The application process opens November 2 at businesshelp.ohio.gov.
Grants will provide $10,000 to small businesses in Ohio with no more than 25 employees.
