Announcement from the Northeastern PA Nonprofit & Community Assistance Center
NEPA is honored to serve as the administrator for the Schuylkill County Nonprofit COVID-19 Response Grant Program.

In an effort to effectively respond to the challenges faced after the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic disruptions resulting from or exacerbated by the pandemic, the Schuylkill County Commissioners have established the Schuylkill County Nonprofit COVID-19 Relief Grant from funding through the America Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to assist tax-exempt organizations under the Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(19) that have been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonprofits, which provide vital services to communities, have faced extreme economic and financial challenges as a direct result of the pandemic. Many nonprofits faced possible closure because of significant challenges in covering payroll, rent, and other operating expenses due to the pandemic.

The Schuylkill County Nonprofit COVID-19 Response Grant will provide assistance to local nonprofits to adopt safer operating procedures or mitigate financial hardship from a net economic loss resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic public health emergency
