Summit Downtown, Inc. (SDI) and The Summit Foundation have been working together to create the Sustain Summit Fund to help our Summit businesses. The fund is dedicated to supporting independently owned Summit businesses during the challenging and unprecedented times resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak.

If you are a business owner who operates an independent business from a physical retail address in Summit, NJ who has been negatively impacted by the restrictions placed on commerce starting in March 2020, please fill out this application. Applications will be reviewed by a committee made up of residents and representatives from SDI and The Summit Foundation. The applications will be evaluated promptly so that relief funds can start flowing as quickly as possible.

The fundraising campaign will begin next week, and The Summit Foundation is generously contributing matching funds up to $50,000 during this fundraising campaign. Please keep in mind that there are many independently owned businesses in Summit, and we will do our best to support as many as possible. As we continue to raise money, we may be able to provide additional funds. Thank you to all our Summit businesses, and to the donors who have contributed to support them!
