Meck Effect: County Campaign

With additional ARPA funds from the COVID-19 relief plan, Mecklenburg County directed critical support to local organizations and projects shaped by community input. Eligible groups could apply for grants starting at $250,000, addressing needs across housing, health and economic development. This initiative transformed abstract dollar amounts into tangible outcomes, elevating the personal stories behind each investment.
