In response to the devastating flooding that occurred on May 13, 2025, Allegany County, working in close coordination with the Maryland Department of
Emergency Management and the Allegany County Department of Social Services, has launched a single, combined application to streamline aid for affected residents.
This comprehensive application is designed to connect residents with various disaster recovery funds through a single form. Eligible applicants may qualify for assistance such as:
- Appliance replacement
- Vehicle insurance deductible reimbursement
- Contributions toward building material costs
- And more
This unified approach allows us to manage multiple funding streams efficiently, while making it easier for residents to access critical support. The goal is to distribute funds as quickly and equitably as possible.
Multiple Sources of Funding Available
The most substantial portion of available funding comes from the State Disaster Recovery Fund, which has allocated $459,000 to Allegany County. Additional funding sources are available from the Allegany County Department of Social Services and the Western Maryland Strong Fund.
Each of these sources may have different eligibility requirements or restrictions. The application process will match residents with the appropriate support based on their needs and qualifications.
