Money can't buy everything we need, but it does help in times of crisis. Benevolence requests are paid directly to utility companies, landlords, and other vendors in order to assist with immediate, one-time needs during this challenging time. You can email Nora Gass to learn more about how our Benevolence Fund works and how to ensure we can assist people into the future.
