Governor announces $10 million for non-profit grants

Non-profit groups in Door and Kewaunee counties could get a boost from a grant program introduced by Governor Tony Evers on Tuesday. The organizations would have access to $10 million in grants funded by the Federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. United Way of Door County Executive Director Amy Kohnle says even a small portion of those dollars could go a long way in supporting their efforts locally.

The United Way of Door County teamed up with the Door County Community Foundation in March to form the Door County Emergency Response Fund, which as of October 29th has raised over $854,000. Those dollars have been used to fund Lakeshore CAP’s rental assistance program, the Door County Food Pantry Coalition, and the United Way’s STRIDE school-based mental health initiative. Non-profits can apply for the grant money through November 9th.
