Program Description
The St. Simons Presbyterian Church COVID-19 Community Relief Fund was established to provide emergency financial assistance to individuals and families in Glynn County, Georgia who have been financially impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. We realize that one of the most pressing challenges many in our church and community are facing as a result of this virus relates to personal and family finances. As such, we are grateful for this opportunity to serve in a tangible way by trying to help ease some of that need. 

Eligibility
Any full-time resident of Glynn County is eligible to apply for a cash grant from this fund if they meet any of the below criteria:

1. Laid off or furloughed from their job due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
2. Experiencing financial hardship as a result of a COVID-19 diagnosis or hospitalization (medical bills, income loss, etc.).
3. Self-employed or small business owners experiencing financial hardship due to significant decline in business and/or loss of customers.
4. Loss of income due to children being home or daycare being closed.

In order to assist the most people possible, individuals/families who have already applied and been approved for a St. Simons Presbyterian COVID-19 Community Relief Fund Grant anytime between April and June 2020 are not eligible for the current round of grants.
