More than $111 million has been distributed to support certain small businesses across the state. The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity announced the total distributed funds for nearly 3,000 different businesses in 300 cities across the state. That’s in addition to $290 million distributed to 9,000 businesses in 98 communities as part of last year’s Business Interruption Grants.  An earlier deadline for grant applications had passed, but previous applicants are still being reviewed until funds are exhausted.
