Morris AREA
RENT RELIEF FUND

In response to COVID-19, Morris Area NJ Together leaders, the Morris Area Clergy Council, Wind of the Spirit, and our allies at Cornerstone Family Programs & Morristown Neighborhood House worked to address rent insecurity in Morris County. 

​

As part of this work and with the help of the Community Foundation of New Jersey, we set up a rent relief fund that was hosted by Cornerstone Family Programs & Morristown Neighborhood House. (More about Cornerstone Family Programs & Morristown Neighborhood House here.)

​

The fund was for residents of Morris County, regardless of citizenship status. It offered a portion of the rent needed & prioritized those in greatest need. Individuals needed only to show loss of income & payments were made directly to the landlord.

​

All funds donated directly supported families in need. Morris Area Together secured the costs of any administrative fees, etc., incurred from foundations or other sources.

​

Cornerstone Family Programs and Morristown Neighborhood House provide much-needed help to over 6,000 children, families, adults, veterans and seniors each year. We have a shared mission of strengthening the community by helping people build better lives.  We believe that everyone deserves a chance for a happy, healthy and productive life.
