Horizon Community Funds of Northern Kentucky is quickly launching a new fund to support Northern Kentuckians facing increased crises or needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Horizon NKY Coronavirus Relief Fund aims to raise at least $4 million, with nearly half of that already committed. The Relief Fund will provide flexible financial assistance to nonprofits serving Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties in Northern Kentucky that are experiencing increased demand for resources in response to the COVID-19 virus in our community.
To deploy resources rapidly, HCF will not be accepting requests for funding or posting a grant application but will work with community advisors and funders to identify organizations currently providing supports to Northern Kentucky residents that are aligned with the priorities of the Relief Fund to expand available resources and support. For questions regarding the NKY Coronavirus Emergency Relief Fund, and how grant funds will be deployed, please contact Tess Brown at tbrown@horizonfunds.org or 859.292.2849.
