Small Latino and immigrant-owned businesses in Central Oregon can now apply for financial help to stay afloat during the COVID-19 emergency. In partnership, the Latino Community Association and Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council (COIC) will distribute $25,000 in funds awarded by the Oregon Community Foundation’s Oregon Small Business Stabilization Fund. LCA is already offering financial relief to families who have lost income and do not qualify for federal stimulus funds.
The grant program launched on May 5 and will accept applications through 5pm on May 15, 2020. This local pot of funds is open to businesses owned by Latinos and immigrants in Jefferson, Deschutes or Crook counties. Each business can receive up to $2,500.
