Mentor Small Business Employee Retention (Bridge the Gap) Program
The City of Mentor has established the Mentor Small Business Employee Retention (Bridge the Gap) Program to assist small businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The program provides grant funds to Mentor-based businesses that retain or create a low-to-moderate income (LMI) position as defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Bridge the Gap Program is managed through the City of Mentor Planning and Development Department. The application form can be submitted for consideration via email after 9:00 AM on Friday, April 23, 2021. Applications submitted prior to that time will not be accepted. Applications will be reviewed, verified, and funds distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.
Questions regarding the program can be directed to business@cityofmentor.com or (440) 974-5740.
