Ellis County announces Ellis County Economic Relief Grant (ERG)

As of Today, Ellis County proudly announces the launch of the Ellis County Economic Relief Grant (ERG). The following grant has been established as a partnership between county government, healthcare agencies, nonprofits/social service agencies, and local small businesses to assist in the fight against the effects of COVID-19. This grant is intended to further stimulate local economic recovery, reduce unemployment, and assist qualifying groups by providing additional financial resources to entities across the Ellis County economy. “We are living in extraordinary times. The COVID-19 response has caused organizations across the county to act swiftly and expand their capacity of services while only receiving a limited supply of funding. This community truly is one to be celebrated. Since the beginning of this battle against COVID-19, we have seen neighbors working hand in hand to ensure the future success of our home. Today, we join together as one to bring financial support to our local economy; to include our healthcare partners, nonprofits/social service agencies, and local small businesses to empower the livelihoods of Ellis County residents.” Ellis County Judge Todd LittleERG is now accepting applications through January 8, 2021.
