Tulsa area nonprofits can now apply for grants from the Tulsa Area COVID-19 Response Fund.
Organizations must show grant funds will go toward basic needs like housing, food and health care for people directly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
"We look after each other in Tulsa. This loyalty to our fellow Tulsans is demonstrated by the millions in donations made by so many, and through the services delivered by the deeply caring work of nonprofit staff who ensure that every Tulsan’s basic needs are met,” Tulsa Community Foundation CEO Phil Lakin said in a statement.
The fund, set up by Tulsa Community Foundation and Tulsa Area United Way, has raised more than $3 million. Around $500,000 has already been distributed to partner organizations.
Application information is at Tulsa Area United Way's website.
