Project 100+ Unconditional Cash Transfer

Intervention (standard name)

Project 100+ Unconditional Cash Transfer was a one-time unconditional cash payment of $1,000 provided to low-income families with children in twelve states to alleviate financial distress associated with the Covid-19 pandemic. The program provided unrestricted, lump sum cash transfer delivered via a Hyperwallet account that could be used for any type of expense. There were no requirements for families to participate in any other services or meet work-related conditions.

Eligible families received the one-time payment in May 2020.
