The Cobb Chamber, in partnership with web developer DynamiX, has launched a redesigned COVID-19 resources site for business owners, community leaders and anyone impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
CovidSupport.CobbChamber.org includes resources and information on the CARES Act federal stimulus, reopening guidelines, upcoming Cobb Chamber webinars and learning opportunities and a list of companies that are currently hiring among many other resources.
The redesigned site also promotes businesses and initiatives, including the donation-driven Operation Meal Plan, Cobb Shops To Go and Thank a Healthcare Hero.
For instance, Operation Meal Plan provides food to those in need, helps restaurants keep their workers employed and provides a way for citizens to help.
So far, 23 nonprofits are receiving meals, 21 restaurants are participating and more than 11,000 meals have been delivered.
Restaurants should contact Nate Futrell at NFutrell@CobbChamber.org, and nonprofits needing food should contact Melanie Kagan with the Center for Family Resources at MelanieKagan@theCFR.org.
This website also provides up-to-date content as news develops and as needs are realized throughout the community.
“The Cobb Chamber has been focused on providing resources, advocacy and support to help our businesses and community through this difficult time,” said Cobb Chamber President & CEO Sharon Mason.
“With the redesign of our COVID-19 website, we’re able to take our support one step further by helping you quickly find the resources you need. We will continue working with our many partners and our Economic Recovery Taskforce to drive initiatives that will lead to our community’s recovery,” Mason added.
Among the core tenants of the Cobb Chamber’s mission are to aid entrepreneurs and small businesses and drive community and economic development.
By hosting a wealth of resources on a single lightweight, responsive site, the Cobb Chamber can offer a one-stop-shop experience for every sector of the community that has been impacted by COVID-19, according to a Cobb Chamber statement.
DynamiX, a Kennesaw-based web design company, built out the site free of charge for the Cobb Chamber.
Aiming to highlight organizations standing up for their employees, community and other businesses, DynamiX provided CovidSupport.CobbChamber.org as a public service to the Cobb Chamber to promote positivity and awareness in the Cobb community.
