In Medina Co., residents can receive Fix-It Funds, low interest home improvement loans. Due to COVID-19, the long-standing program extends the repayment period from 12-18 mos., making it easier for residents to invest in their neighborhoods. #GOPCThread https://bit.ly/30qM1du ">https://bit.ly/30qM1du&q...

When NE Franklin Co. residents were impacted by suspended bus lines, @COTABus started a micro-transit service—a free, 7 days/week, on-demand pilot project to serve the bus riders impacted by service disruptions & COVID-19. #GOPCThread #SustainingCommunity https://bit.ly/3egzu01 ">https://bit.ly/3egzu01&q...
Since COVID, @ColsFoundation stepped up—giving about $4.6M in emergency funding to nearly 120 Franklin Co. nonprofits. On June 10-11, the Foundation went forward with the previously scheduled #TheBigGive, which raised more $ than prior years. #GOPCThread https://bit.ly/3gdiXvk ">https://bit.ly/3gdiXvk&q...
Faced with meeting housing stock demands, #ChampaignCounty took necessary first steps pre-pandemic: analyzed current conditions & collected resident feedback. Community members are ready to roll up their sleeves to begin implementation soon. #GOPCThread https://bit.ly/2zjPCic ">https://bit.ly/2zjPCic&q...
When Appalachian leaders worried their region may be undercounted in the #2020Census, Mayors Partnership for Progress @ohiou & SE Ohio Public Energy Council raised $44K to spread the word & promote an effort called Appalachian Ohio Counts #GOPCThread https://bit.ly/3dSPYvl ">https://bit.ly/3dSPYvl&q...
If COVID-19 has taught us anything, it is that the only way we can keep #SustainingCommunity is if we come together. #OhioStrong #GOPCThread
