Covid Money For Business

The application period for pandemic relief programs, announced by the state, opens today. The programs assist small businesses, bars and restaurants affected by COVID-19. It’s all funded through the federal CARES Act. The Small Business Relief Grant provides $125 million for grants to small businesses with no more than 25 employees. To ensure they are spread throughout the state, $500,000 will be set aside for businesses in each of Ohio’s 88 counties.
