Long Beach Expands Pledge Program to Provide $500 Monthly Payments for Families in Need
According to The US Sun, a new program in Long Beach, California, is giving $500 a month to some families for a year. To get the money, families must live in one of five zip codes—90802, 90804, 90805, 90806, or 90810—and have kids under 18. They also need to have an income at or below the federal poverty level.
This Pledge program started in 2022 with funds from the Long Beach Recovery Act. It was recently expanded to help more families, especially those struggling due to the coronavirus pandemic. Each eligible family will get $500 each month, totaling $6,000 over the year.
