These dollars will go directly towards meeting the most pressing needs resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic in Tioga County, N.Y.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Tioga County Foundations Coalition quickly came together to establish the Tioga County Foundations Coalition Emergency Fund, a funder collaborative that will provide support for organizations that work with individuals and families most negatively affected by COVID-19. Tioga Opportunities, Inc. stepped forward to house the fund and is working with an Advisory Committee to review and expedite funds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Tioga County nonprofit organizations that provide critical services to mitigate the short-term and long-term impact of the pandemic on the community may apply here. This includes programs that address a specific, demonstrated community need related to local COVID-19 response, proposals that build organizational capacity to respond to COVID-19, and general operating assistance to continue meeting COVID-19 related needs in the community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe goal of the Tioga County Foundations Coalition Emergency Fund is to help essential nonprofit organizations as quickly and efficiently as possible,\u201d said Abbey Hendrickson, Community Development specialist for Economic Development and Planning.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In addition to private donors, the collaborative funders, as of April 17, include The Community Foundation for South Central New York, the Mildred Faulkner Truman Foundation, the Tioga County Senior Citizens Foundation, and Visions Federal Credit Union.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Applications are available at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tiogacountyny.com\/tioga-county-foundations-portal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.tiogacountyny.com\/tioga-county-foundations-portal<\/a> and are being accepted.
