COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL | APRIL 30, 2020 | 7A South Lane programs receive $7,500 in support from United Way United Way of Lane County has announced an additional 42 non- profit programs will re- ceive funding to address urgent COVID-19-relat- ed needs, including three in the South Lane region. This is the second round of funding made from its COVID-19 Community Response Fund. In total, $99,900 will be distributed in this round of funding. An increase in individual and cor- porate donations to the COVID-19 Community Response Fund enabled United Way to almost double the amount of funds distributed since its first round of funding. An original investment of $64,500 was made to 27 programs earlier this from A6 CARES will continue to push for greater and direct invest- ment in state and local entities in any subsequent relief legislation. I will also continue to push for strengthening SNAP ben- efits, investments in our month. The following non- profits serving the South Lane region will each receive $2,500 this week in COVID-19 Response Funding through this second round of funding: • Family Relief Nurs- ery: for prevention of child abuse and neglect in vulnerable families • Soup’s On: for week- ly free Sunday dinner and sack lunch for 60-80 community members in Cottage Grove • South Lane Mental Health: for teletherapy for low income, rural cli- ents and organizational stability “South Lane Men- tal Health would like to thank the United Way for their Emergency Relief Grant,” said Norma Bar- ton, Development Man- ager with South Lane Mental Health. “This funding will assist our organization in continu- ing to care for our clients. We are truly grateful for the ongoing assistance throughout the years from the United Way.” The urgent need to ad- dress food insecurity was clear from applications received in this cycle, particularly in rural com- munities. To address food inse- curity, funds distributed in this round will provide lunches and dinners for more than 60 residents in Cottage Grove, fresh food to homebound and ill community members in Eugene area, food boxes for kids and low income individuals in Blachly and Triangle Lake, and more programs through- out the county. Other vital needs being addressed in this round of funding include access to emergency shelter and long-term housing, vir- tual parenting support, respite for grandparents who are primary care- givers to grandchildren, crisis response for youth experiencing mental or behaviors issues, and more. As with all of United Way’s grant making pro- cesses, this fund’s review process is led by a small group of volunteers — community members from across Lane County representing a variety of sectors — most of whom are donors to United Way themselves. Postal Service, additional economic impact pay- ments, implementation of an OSHA emergency temporary standard to strengthen protective mea- sures for our front-line workers, funding for haz- ard pay for these individu- als, and more.” The end result of Thurs- day’s legislation dealt with the most glaring deficien- cies of the CARES Act and will serve as the next step in the government’s at- tempt to mitigate the eco- nomic impacts being felt across Oregon.
