The City of Paducah says thanks to the generosity of community donors, each of the 50 "non-essential" businesses in this round is receiving a $2000 check that can be used for payroll, rent/mortgage, or utilities. The city matched the donations dollar-for-dollar.
The city says a third round of funding is possible in the future.
The Small Business Relief Fund program has raised more than $58,000 so far, and is a partnership among the City of Paducah, West Kentucky Community & Technical College, and the Community Foundation of West Kentucky.
