On Monday, March 9,​ Ohio Governor Mike DeWine declared a state of emergency. As a result, The Columbus Foundation has, in partnership with city, county, and state officials, activated its Emergency Response Fund.
This fund assists nonprofit organizations that are responding to the spread of COVID-19 and experiencing financial challenges by doing so. Nonprofits seeking assistance may apply through the links below.
“We are one community. During times of crisis it is critical we join forces to support each other. The Foundation is committed to being a point of access for those who want to assist others, while also doing what we can with these resources to be of help to this community.”
