The new Safety Net Program will allow non-profits to apply for money that will make up for funding lost during the pandemic.
TAMPA, Fla. (CW44 News At 10) – Local non-profits can now apply for some extra financial help from Hillsborough County.
The new Safety Net Program will allow non-profits to apply for money that will make up for funding lost during the pandemic.
Marisol Sanches, owner of a non-profit called Guided Path, says “I can’t sleep at night knowing there’s someone I was able to feed and they didn’t eat, so it’s very important to me. This is my baby, this is my passion.”
Every time Sanchez hears a door bell at the front of her non-profit, she knows there’s an opportunity to help someone in need.
“There are a lot of people who are suffering and a lot of people who don’t have a place to eat, a place to stay. Especially with the housing market going on because of COVID-19,” said Sanchez.
