Disaster Relief Fund and COVID-19 Relief Update: For SAG-AFTRA artists who have been displaced or evacuated from their homes, or are in need of emergency medical assistance, due to recent wildfires or hurricanes, the Foundation is here to help through our Disaster Relief Fund (https://sagaftra.foundation/assistance/disasterrelief/).
In addition, our COVID-19 Relief efforts continue. To date, we’ve distributed over $5.7 million in emergency aid to more than 6,100 SAG-AFTRA artists in need. If you need help, ask. And if you are able to help your community, please give today at https://sagaftra.foundation/donate.
