Funding to Maintain

images-3.jpeg

We are living in times right now that have us questioning our security and our futures. Futures that once felt bright, but may feel uncertain right now. We are evaluating our savings, and wondering how long they will cover our necessary outcome, and lifestyle. Some of us may even be deemed “essential workers”, which in and of itself is worrisome to say the least. Because, although you are receiving income you are also constantly putting yourself at risk to contract COVID19, but may feel obligated to continue taking that risk for so many reasons. Basically we are all experiencing unspeakable stress and could use some extra help.

Thankfully there are some organizations and resources that can assist with our financial hardships. For one, there are are organizations that are receiving funding from FEMA, Federal Emergency Management Agency, to house people that are homeless and have compromised immune systems into hotels, and more. Alongside FEMA, we have been promised a stimulus check by our government, regardless of whether you filed your taxes this most recent tax season. If you are a non-filer please complete the application on the IRS website so that you can receive some much needed assistance. Lastly, in the Los Angeles area the Mission Asset Fund has opened up a funding source for LA creatives that can provide a $500 grant for creatives that have lost income due to COVID19. Please note that this is not guaranteed funding but you should still apply.

If you have any other resources that you are aware of that could assist others within the For Us Nation, then please email them to us so that we can share. Also, allow For Us to assist your business with visibility, by joining our directory, and if you could use more personalized assistance than please contact us.
