As the needs are evolving, CFWNC is expanding the EDRF grant program. Nonprofits can apply for either:

Grants up to $25,000 to be awarded to eligible organizations for frontline human services. OR. Grants up to $50,000 to

(1) eligible organizations that sustained direct facility damage or

(2) eligible organizations whose work addresses the effects of Hurricane Helene focused on repair and remediation.

Grants are intended to cover the extraordinary costs of providing emergency, relief or recovery services for eligible organizations affected by the storm. EDRF grants are not for ongoing operational costs, lost revenue, lost wages, or costs that are or will be covered by other sources. Eligibility for emergency public funding (local, state or federal) will be addressed in the application.
