COVID-19 Prevention & Response Fund
Posted by City of Philadelphia on August 3, 2021
The COVID-19 Prevention & Response Fund is a community-led effort to invest in neighborhood-based solutions to urgent needs related to COVID-19 and was created to help non-profits, small businesses and individuals provide neighborhood-based solutions to urgent needs related to COVID-19.
This fund uses a trust-based philanthropy approach to lower barriers to entry for groups that are often excluded from traditional grant opportunities. The COVID-19 Prevention & Response Fund seeks to increase rates of vaccinations in communities that are disproportionately affected by COVID-19 and to address the challenges exacerbated as a result of the pandemic. So far the fund has distributed over $1 million in general operating support grants to 117 nonprofits, small businesses, and individuals.
