Oceanside Strong

Local businesses need our financial support now more than ever. Required to restrict their operations to minimize the spread of COVID-19, many of our Downtown Oceanside businesses have had to cut staff and close their storefronts, resulting in drastically reduced revenue. Please help our small businesses stay strong until they can reopen their physical doors by donating to our Oceanside Strong Fund. 


MainStreet Oceanside will use donations to the Oceanside Strong Fund to establish the Keep It Local Oceanside Microgrant Program for local businesses. The Keep It Local Oceanside Microgrant Program will offer $250-$1,000 microgrants to Oceanside small businesses to help meet their short-term financial needs and help them survive until they can fully resume their services and reopen. According to a recent Main Street America survey of more than 5,800 U.S. small businesses, 1 in 4 small businesses in Oceanside and throughout the country could be at risk of closing permanently over the next five months. Every donation, from $5 to $5,000, will help strengthen our small business community, and all donations to the Oceanside Strong Fund of $25 or more will receive a free Oceanside Strong face mask.
