Rising to the challenge.
------------------------------------------------------------
As this year draws to a close, we're taking a look back at all the progress we've made as a city under Mayor LaToya Cantrell. While the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged New Orleans unlike ever before, Mayor Cantrell has risen to the challenge. She followed the science and imposed tougher measures than the rest of the state. As a result, New Orleans reversed its status as a COVID-19 hotspot and at times our city has performed better than the rest of Louisiana on key COVID metrics ([link removed]) . As we move into the new year and Mayor Cantrell begins her campaign for second term, we need your help to keep up the progress ([link removed]) .
From rental assistance to aid for local businesses, Mayor Cantrell has spearheaded a truly unprecedented response to get New Orleanians the help they need. Here's just a few of the things Mayor Cantrell is doing to respond to the COVID crisis:
* 11,000 people receiving meals from the city's mass feeding program
* $8.4 million in rent paid from the city's Rental Assistance Fund
* Landlord Emergency Grant Program stabilized housing for 500 to 700 households
* $1.5 million raised for the city's Gig-Workers Relief Fund
* $6.7 million total raised from philanthropic partners for relief for New Orleanians struggling with COVID-related
* $10 million in community development block grants to shore affordable housing projects that were at risk of losing funding because of COVID-19
* Mainstreet Recovery Program and Outdoor Dining Grant Program delivered grants to help businesses cover COVID-related expenses
Thanks to Mayor Cantrell, thousands of New Orleanians are receiving the help they need to get through this crisis. Mayor Cantrell is up for re-election next year.
