Phase 2 Awards are Complete
Nearly 4,800 microbusinesses, small businesses and nonprofits have received grants through Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the EOG Program, representing more than $50 million invested across L.A. County.
The EOG Program received many more qualified applications than we could award. All available funds have been awarded and applicants have been notified via email by Lendistry regarding their application status. Check out our FAQs for other information about the Program.
Funding for the EOG Program was limited, and L.A. County prioritized Phase 2 grants for microbusinesses, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations located in the highest or high COVID-19 impacted geographic areas, as noted under Eligibility Guidelines here. L.A. County determined which geographic areas fall into the highest and high COVID-19 impacted areas using the County’s Equity Explorer Tool, which is available here.
