The La Crosse Bar & Restaurant Relief Fund Deadline Has Been Extended

Sprout for Kids Foundation and Pearl Street Brewery has announced an extension to the La Crosse Bar & Restaurant Relief Fund until December 31, 2020. Tami & Joe from Pearl Street Brewery created this fund to raise money for area restaurants and bars and  100% of the proceeds will be turned into grants. These funds are to be used as gap funding for area restaurants and bars for expenses not covered by PPP loans or other grants. La Crosse area bars and restaurants who have suffered hardships during the lock-down can apply for a grant.

As the hardships of Covid-19 continue to create ongoing challenges for restaurant and bar owners in terms of exposure, closures, low capacity and lack of business, owners are struggling to make the bills. The reality is that there is not an end in sight. And these small local businesses need our help! Currently, the project has raised $20,000+ dollars. Sprout for Kids Foundation  and Pearl Street Brewery are making a final push for this fund, and have extended the deadline to  December 31, 2020.
