COVID-19 COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE FUND

As with most of these disruptive events, our most vulnerable community members will be impacted the most, with even greater economic, income and childcare challenges than what they face on a regular basis. The COVID-19 Community Emergency Response Fund is designed to provide emergency help for those who are most in need within Charlottesville and our surrounding counties.

Your gift will go to help families with children, and other community members with limited or no access to emergency funds.

Each of these local populations may experience both short and long-term severe financial hardship and loss of resources from this unprecedented pandemic. 

Funds may be used to help families pay for utilities, rent, food and other critical household needs still unmet by public and private resources.
