COEUR d’ALENE — Local food and shelter organizations can apply for funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Kootenai County has been awarded $65,515 for the emergency food and shelter phase 41. The state also awarded Kootenai County $44,438 from some “set aside” funding for the emergency food and shelter phase 41. Phase 41 is a FEMA funding mechanism for the year 2024.

United Ways and St. Vincent de Paul locations nationwide partner with FEMA to distribute the funds. For nonprofits that may not qualify for other types of funding, such as church-based soup kitchens, the emergency food and shelter program provides a unique opportunity.
