Late last week, Gov. Chris Sununu approved funding for various entities throughout New Hampshire, including health-care providers, non-profits, a small business relief fund, colleges and food banks. The funding announced was $595 million, which is on top of nearly $250 million already allocated by the governor.

This funding comes from the CARES Act, which was passed by Congress and signed by President Donald Trump in late March to be used for COVID-19-related expenses by the state as well as cities and towns. It cannot be used to cover expected state or local revenue shortfalls.
