Rock Rapids, Iowa — If you have a business in Lyon County that has been affected by COVID-19, a new grant could help you out. But you’re going to have to hurry.
Small businesses with no more than 15 full-time equivalent employees in Lyon County, Iowa, can apply for a competitive emergency funding grant to help cover rent, account payables, fixed expenses, utilities, and employee salaries. All may apply, however, businesses closed by the Governor to aid in fighting COVID-19 will be considered first.
The Lyon County Lend-A-Hand Program was created because of the disruptions that COVID-19 has created for our small business community. Organizers say that you must show that you lost revenue due to COVID-19, and that your business is located in Lyon County.
Time is very short for this opportunity. Applications are due by noon on Monday, April 6th.
