On March 30, 2020, Summit County created the COVID-19 Small Business Emergency Relief Grant.  The program, administered by the Greater Akron Chamber, was established to award $5,000 grants to eligible small businesses.

All in, they are granting $1,546,000 to 311 recipients throughout Summit County! 

Coventry Township contributed $10,000 towards this effort.  We are very happy to announce that 21 of our local businesses applied, 14 actually qualified, and 11 were successful.  The following Coventry businesses will receive a grant award of $5,000 each:

• John C Kline DDS

• Friess Welding
• Akron Coin and Jewelry
• New Happy Family Buffet
• D’Angelos

Congrats to the awardees – we are hopeful that this money will help you through these unprecedented times. We look forward to everyone being able to open their doors again soon!
