"We've been speaking with businesses across the corridor region and there's a lot of need out there, there's a lot of hurt out there, and this is one small step that we can do to help folks get back on their feet. So a business can apply for a $3,000 grant and they would need to match that 50 cents on the dollar of what we provide. So if they get the full $3,000 maximum they need to have $1,500 of their own or they can get $1,000 from us and match with $500 of their own if you will."
