🗣️🗣️ Organizations physically impacted by the July ‘23 floods: this is a grant opening that you NEED to know about! ➡️➡️

The Department of Economic Development has created the Business Emergency Gap Assistance Program (BEGAP). This $20 million grant program is for businesses and nonprofits that suffered physical damages from flooding dating back to July 7, 2023. Applicants must intend on restoring, reopening, and bringing their employees back to work as soon as possible and will utilize these grant funds for that purpose.

Incomplete applications will be returned to applicants for revision and will take more time to process. Applications will be approved on a rolling basis until all funds are expended. The application portal is expected to open on Thursday, August 3.

If you get 3SquaresVT benefits and lost your food due to the flooding you may be eligible for funds to replace it. You might also be eligible for these funds if the flood caused your power to be out for four, or more, hours. If you'd like help through the process, contact our friendly 3SquaresVT team by texting VFBCHAT to 61222.

Usually, the deadline to report loss of food to the Economic Services Division (ESD) is within 10 days of the incident, however, this deadline was extended, so now the last day to report food loss to ESD is August 9. You must report the loss of food to Economic Services (1-800-479-6151). They will ask you to fill out a form explaining the loss. You will have 10 days to complete the form found here: https://bit.ly/3Y8XLNx

“You do not need to list a verification contact for flooding damage. You can write that the loss was caused by the flood on [date] in [your location].”

What We Do

KCS is an interfaith partnership that shares food and other resources to fulfill basic needs for all, acting out of justice and compassion. We do this through our Food Shelf, Meal Sites (four locations), and Clothing Thrift Shop.

Participating communities of faith in and around St. Johnsbury, recognized by formal action of their governance to support and participate in KCS, are Congregation Beth El, Lower Waterford/Third Congregational Church, Corpus Christis Parish, Universalist Unitarian Congregation, The United Community Church, and Grace Methodist Church.

KCS is a network partner of the VT Foodbank and partners with St. Johnsbury Academy.

From the Food Shelf, families and individuals receive free, basic food and other grocery items to stretch their food dollar. We offer a three-day supply of emergency food and hygiene products once/month for each customer, year-round. We also offer free Thanksgiving and Christmas food boxes.
