Grant OpportunityApplications open November 18, 2021
To back underrepresented small business owners as they navigate the pandemic and plan for long-term success and resilience, @AmericanExpress is partnering with @NationalMainStreetCenter to launch a $1.65M year-round program called Inclusive Backing. More than 250 grants of $5,000 each will be awarded in four cycles over 12 months to small business owners in older or historic commercial districts across the country, with priority given to businesses that have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. In partnership with @NationalAce and @DisabilityIN, the first grant cycle will provide grants to both small business owners with disabilities and/or those who identify as Asian, Asian American, and/or Pacific Islander. Applications open Nov. 18! Learn more and review terms at mainstreet.org/inclusivebacking.

"Do Good" for GerryGerry “Do Good” Clark left a lasting impression in our hearts and across our community. Although he is gone he will certainly never be forgotten. In partnership with, the City of Reedsport, Gerry’s family and friends, a memorial bench will be placed by Heidi’s Espresso (one of Gerry’s favorite places) here in downtown Reedsport.
Gerry started volunteering long before October 4, 2016 when he joined the Reedsport Police Department. He would be seen around town with a vest that read “DO GOOD” on the back as he rode his bicycle talking to people and picking up trash. Those very acts earned him a Good Friends and Neighbors award in 2013. He was a true inspiration to so many and will be dearly missed. If you are interested in donating please click on the link below or mail your donation to Reedsport City Hall at 451 Winchester Ave, Reedsport, OR 97467. Thank you! All donations will be used for the purchase and care of the memorial bench.
