Vevay Main Street will fund the director's salary with the Taking Care of Main Street grant.
(Vevay, Ind.) - Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch and the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs announced a new program that provides operational support for Indiana Main Street organizations impacted by COVID-19.
40 Indiana Main Street programs, including Vevay Main Street, will receive $200,000 through Taking Care of Main Street.
“Main Street organizations are a lifeline for small businesses who are doing their best to survive the effects of this pandemic,” said Lt. Gov. Crouch. “Ensuring small businesses are able to survive requires a comprehensive approach. This funding can help bridge the gap.”
Taking Care of Main Street will support Indiana Main Street organizations that provide leadership and services to the businesses and members, using the Main Street Approach, with special attention to organizations that have been significantly impacted by COVID-19.
“As we saw from these applications, most Main Street organizations are dealing with loss of funding from a variety of reasons related to COVID-19,” said Matt Crouch, Interim Executive Director of OCRA. “Since their leadership and guidance is a valuable tool for economic recovery, OCRA is grateful to provide this state assistance.”
Eligible funding could include salaries, administrative fees, space/equipment rental or staff development and training.
