Former governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie, and his wife, Mary Pat, have initiated the New Jersey 30 Day Fund Program to help small business owners survive the COVID-19 pandemic. The fund’s goal is to save as many New Jersey jobs as possible. This is not a government-funded program, it is an organization powered by the private sector.
The funding will award up to $3,000 and does not need to be repaid. If a business that has been awarded money from the fund decides to “pay it forward” they have the option to direct the money back into the 30-day fund at a later time. From there, it will be transferred to another New Jersey business in need.
Small businesses that qualify include:
The application opened on June 10, 2020. It is designed to be an easy process and should take no longer than 10 minutes.
