Newspaper Page TextMAY 22, 2020, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A9 ST. ED, continued from Page A1 Anyone with the ability to donate a trailer for a few weeks should contact Henny at 503- 393-5323, ext. 303. On Monday, May 18, 25-pound boxes of produce were being passed out by volunteers to drivers mak- ing their way through the St. Edward parking lot. The box- es contained apples, oranges, strawberries, potatoes, onion, broccoli, caulifl ower, celery, lettuce and carrots. The supply ran out about 4:30 p.m. and visitors were still showing up after 5 p.m. Henny hopes to make boxes available to the those attending the drive-through Communi- ty Dinner held at the church each month. The fi rst shipment the church received totaled more than 700 food boxes and the church passed on 100 of those to the Confederated Tribes of the Grande Ronde to feed community elders, another 50 were sent to the Gervais School District which is ex- periencing a shortage in its school meal programs. “We love our community outreach and taking care of each other,” Henny said. Future weeks will feature dairy boxes containing eggs, milk, butter, yogurt, ched- dar and jack cheeses. Combo LOAN, continued from Page A1 Country Lanes; Salon Paradise Inc.; Dazy Maze dba: The Maze; and Classic Tap Dance Studio, Inc. City offi cials, backed by the Keizer City Council, established the loan program with $45,000 it plans to receive from Marion Coun- ty’s Prosperity Fund. The money was divided into 18 $2,500 grants. Each business had to complete an online application showing they had staffi ng expenses impacted by forced clo- sures as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The names of qualifying applicants were then put into a bucket and drawn randomly by City Manager Chris Eppley in front of two witnesses Monday. The money was expected to be disbursed no later than Thursday, May 21. However, there may be more support in the pipeline. Last week, the city was notifi ed by Business Oregon last week that the Oregon Legislature had ordered $7.5 million to be disbursed to Oregon businesses in an effort to fi ll in gaps not met by other programs. The initial struc- ture of the program, which could change, re- boxes containing deli ham and turkey, milk, cheddar and jack cheeses, carrots, apples, celery, lettuce and tomatoes will be given out other weeks. Requests for specifi c boxes are not possible. Marion Polk Food Share is receiving a similar shipment of the food boxes, from the same USDA source, to distribute through its network of com- munity food banks. No appointment is nec- essary to receive a food box and there is no requirement to prove need. Those picking up food boxes are encouraged to ask neighbors if they need assistance. The food box delivery will continue through June 30. quires a 50 percent match on the part of mu- nicipal agencies. Community Development Director Nate Brown told city councilors that Keizer had applied to have the $45,000 forgiv- able loan program matched by Business Ore- gon’s Fund. The city’s loan program did not align com- pletely with the guidelines Business Oregon had established, but Brown held out hope that Keizer would qualify. Business Oregon’s program requests that the money be directed at sole proprietorships with special emphasis on historically disadvantaged groups such as minority-owned or wom- en-owned businesses. Brown said announcement of the recipients of the Business Oregon funds were expected by the end of the week. Provided that the qual- ifi cations for receiving loans does not change, Keizer businesses that applied for the fi rst round of grants and did not receive a forgiv- able loan would be kept and put back into the pool of eligible recipients for the new funds if the city’s application is approved. Those who received money in the fi rst round of grants would likely need to reapply. The city’s tight purse strings minimize its ability to put forward money for matching funds if that requirement remains in place. KEIZER CLASSIFIEDS RVs FOR SALE SERVICES SERVICES WE BUY RVS.

ONAC REACH, continued from Page A1 Chamber staff have also con- sulted with businesses on the hard questions of layoffs and how to handle them. “We had one that was in jeopardy of layoffs that could have resulted in age discrimina- tion claims and we were able to help them navigate away from that,” Bethell said. She has also participated in teleconference calls with a wide array of those affected by the pandemic. “We had one with more than 70 hairstylists and barbers on the line to talk about what they were seeing and what measures they could take to re- open,” she said. Last week, Bethell accepted delivery of face masks from the Marion County Health De- partment that will be given out to Keizer businesses according to their need. Bethell said she pitched the idea to Marion County commissioners during a meeting two weeks prior. “A lot of our local business- es are going to need masks and other items to begin to reopen and this was a way to assist,” Bethell said. A total of 10,000 masks were donated to local chambers of commerce throughout Marion County. Bethell is currently run- ning to replace Commissioner Sam Brentano on the Marion County Board of Commission- ers and that standing has grant- ed her access to calls and meet- ing she might not otherwise be privy to. The chamber is putting up a survey on its Facebook page requesting info about business- es protective equipment needs and will arrange for pick-up of the masks at its offi ce. In the midst of putting out a thousand small fi res, the cham- ber itself has taken some con- siderable lumps in recent weeks. It started with needing to layoff one of its three employees and peaked with the postponement of the annual KeizerFEST. While organizers hoped to simply delay the festival until August, Oregon’s ban on large gatherings is now expected to extend through September which puts the new target dates in question. “We’re doing this effort with two people and a board of amazing community volun- teers,” Bethell said.
