Restaurants, bars, and other businesses received nearly $72 million in pandemic relief in 41 additional counties through the Wolf Administration’s successful COVID-19 Hospitality Industry Recovery Program (CHIRP), Gov. Tom Wolf announced today. The $72 million is in addition to the nearly $50 million provided to 13 other counties highlighted last week.
“The CHIRP program is doing exactly what we intended: provide more than $100 million to our state’s hospitality industry to help these important businesses to recover and retain and create jobs,” said Gov. Wolf. “This program is allowing many small businesses to get back on their feet as more people get fully vaccinated and customers increasingly return to the industry. This is an important investment in our businesses and workers as we look to build a stronger economy for everyone.”
