Local charities helping people affected by the COVID situation have another opportunity to receive funding through a federal program.
The Dauphin & District Community Foundation (DDCF) is responsible for granting out 2nd wave of the government of Canada’s Emergency Community Support Fund (ECSF).
DDCF Executive Director Kit Daley explains there's $30,000 available this time around for registered charities that are helping people disproportionately affected by COVID-19.
The first round of funding earlier this year saw 10 local groups split up $40,000 of federal funds.
Applications for this round of ECSF funding must be in by October 30.
Interested charities can apply to the Community Foundations website, and questions can be directed to Kit Daley at 638-4598.
