Stateline Community Foundation: COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund

About

To meet the rapidly changing needs of our community due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Stateline Community Foundation has activated an Emergency Response Fund. Stateline Community Foundation, Inc. will cover all fees so 100% of your donation supports our local nonprofits. Should the Emergency Response Fund exceed needed COVID-19 relief, the Foundation will restrict the remaining funds for future disaster relief in our community.

Our staff, although working remotely, is in constant communication with local government, community leaders and our nonprofit partners to understand the rising needs and to assess the impact on our most vulnerable populations. Initial conversations identify food security, shelter, transportation and childcare as immediate needs.

In order to meet their most critical needs, a streamlined grants process has been developed to quickly and effectively distribute these funds to our local nonprofit organizations.
