SANTA ANA, Calif.—Orange County microbusinesses, like street vendors and mom-and-pop shops, who began operating before 2020 and were “significantly” impacted by the COVD-19 pandemic can now apply for a one-time $2,500 grant until mid-March.
“These are the people that were left behind in those other funding opportunities, and we’re really trying to make an effort to ensure that they are first to get served under this grant,” Carma Lacy, director of Workforce and Economic Development for Orange County, told The Epoch Times.
