The Wyoming Business Council has issued the first payments to Wyoming-based businesses and nonprofits who applied for the COVID-19 Business Relief Program’s Mitigation Fund. The Mitigation Fund is one of three funds created by the Wyoming Legislature in May to distribute $325 million in federal CARES Act dollars to small businesses and nonprofits affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Mitigation Fund reimburses all Wyoming-based businesses and nonprofits who have incurred employee and customer health and safety expenses as a direct impact of COVID-19. The Mitigation Fund has $40 million available with awards up to $500,000 per eligible entity. Of the $7.6 million approved to date, $2.2 million has been paid to 70 applicants from the Mitigation Fund. Eligible businesses and nonprofits can still apply at wyobizrelief.org for the Relief and Mitigation Funds.
