South Jersey COVID-19 Response Fund

The philanthropic response to the COVID-19 pandemic is growing by the minute. In addition to the New Jersey Pandemic Relief Fund we announced earlier this morning, we wanted to make you aware of a unique opportunity to give toward South Jersey communities.

The Community Foundation of South Jersey has established the South Jersey COVID-19 Response Fund to pool resources to address both the short-term and long-term impact of COVID-19 in local boroughs, counties, and the South Jersey region as whole.

The South Jersey COVID-19 Response Fund will support local 501(c)3 non-profit agencies as they adapt internally and programmatically to assist neighbors and continue to deliver on their missions during this turbulent time. To do so, CFSJ will award:

  • A limited number of one-time program support grants
  • Amount: minimum of $3,000 to 501(c)3 non-profit organizations providing critical services tied directly to the economic security of South Jersey residents
  • Organizations’ areas of operation: Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, Ocean and Salem counties
In order to move resources quickly and not further burden organizations on the frontlines of the pandemic, there is no formal application process at this time. Communication and engagement from nonprofit partners is expected. Visit the website or email COVID19@communityfoundationsj.org.
