Greeley Area Recovery Fund
The Greeley Chamber of Commerce has re-opened the Greeley Area Recovery Fund for new applications for grants up to $5,000. Also, SB20B-001, which was passed during an extraordinary session of the state legislature late last year, allocates $37M to provide relief to businesses affected by the most recent state health orders. Greeley expects to receive our pro-rata portion from this fund and we plan to partner with the Greeley Area Recovery Fund as we did early on during the pandemic to distribute those grants, ranging between $3,500 and $7,000, beginning in late January.
