The Broadcasters Foundation of America announced Monday morning it is encouraging broadcasters who have been hit by Hurricane Harvey to find out if they qualify for emergency aid by completing the emergency grant request form on their website.
The Foundation’s emergency relief program distributes one-time grants of $1,000 each after a disaster, such as a hurricane, tornado, fire, flood, or other serious misfortune. The expedited emergency grant application process is streamlined to provide assistance as quickly as possible.
“The Broadcasters Foundation is a safety net in an emergency,” said Dan Mason, Chairman of the Broadcasters Foundation. “When a colleague’s roof is suddenly blown away, their belongings destroyed, or their families displaced, the Broadcasters Foundation can step in quickly. We need everyone in our business to help us ensure that all broadcasters in need are aware of the Broadcasters Foundation.”
