Applications open for $62M fund for Black Oregonians By ZANE SPARLING OreGOn CapItaL bUreaU A $62 million relief fund is now accepting applica- tions from Black residents picking up the pieces after the novel coronavirus shat- tered lives and livelihoods across Oregon. The Oregon Cares Fund for Black Relief and Resil- iency will distribute the money — taken from the $1.4 billion sent to Oregon via the federal CARES Act — in increments of $1,000, $2,000 or $3,000, depending on the severity of the virus’ impact. Grants are also available for Black-owned businesses and nonprofits. Two nonprofits, The Contingent and The Black United Fund, will manage monetary distribution, and an 11-member Council of Trust was formed to provide oversight. Grant applications will be accepted on a rolling basis, with distribution of the money expected two to three weeks later. The money will be dis- tributed based on need — not on a first-come, first- served basis. The Oregon Legisla- ture’s Emergency Board, which approved the $62 million allocation in July, requires that the money be disbursed no later than Dec. 30, 2020.
