And Tullynaha in North Roscommon.
The aim of the fund which consists of €238,000- is to deliver targeted services and support to the most vulnerable during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The emergency fund will be administered by SECAD, a local development company.
Application are welcome from existing community-based not-for-profit and voluntary organisations involved in the current provision of community services and supplies such as food, medicines, PPE and educational material.
