The programs range from providing food to community members in need and helping low-income and homeless folks to offering summer child care to help children catch up in learning before returning to school. The grants ranged from $10,000 to $30,000.
A $10,000 grant went to the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce for its Restaurant Recovery Program, called Gift Carlsbad, which provides economic stimulus to restaurants that have been hurt by the pandemic.
