Coronavirus Response

One Sioux Falls Fund

In response to the Coronavirus pandemic, the Sioux Falls Area Community Foundation, in partnership with the City of Sioux Falls and local businesses, has established the One Sioux Falls Fund, a disaster fund to help residents in the Sioux Falls MSA (Minnehaha, Lincoln, McCook and Turner counties) avoid evictions if they are unable to work due to COVID-19.

About the Fund

In August 2020, the Community Foundation announced a partnership with the Minnehaha County Human Services Department through which the One Sioux Falls Fund will help provide continued financial assistance for rent, mortgage and utility costs for individuals and families suffering economic effects of the pandemic.

As of December 2020, businesses, families and individuals have contributed nearly $3.4 million to the One Sioux Falls Fund, helping more than 4,500 households in our community remain housed. See a list of major donors to the One Sioux Falls Fund.
