Charlottesville Area Community Foundation: Community Emergency Response Fund

About

The Community Foundation, Cville Community Cares, United Way of Greater Charlottesville, City of Charlottesville, and County of Albemarle will partner to disburse funds to households experiencing hardship due to the COVID-19 virus. This partnership will make financial payments to households in Charlottesville and the counties of Albemarle, Buckingham, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, Nelson, and Orange.

The Foundation is listening to the needs of community-based organizations providing basic assistance, including food, housing, and medical supplies. It will make targeted grants to organizations in Charlottesville and the counties of Albemarle, Buckingham, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, Nelson, and Orange.

We will outline additional uses as we learn more about needs, gaps, and additional resources.

Hosted by the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation, the Community Emergency Response Fund will provide flexible resources to organizations in Central Virginia helping to alleviate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Fund will operate in partnership with local governments, schools, and the private sector to address current and emerging needs and strategically fill gaps in support.
