2021 New funding – Covid-19 Response Emergency Fund

In response to the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, we established an emergency fund and application process dedicated to helping support families that have experienced a changing financial situation from the Covid crisis and our March/April (and further Level 2) lockdown restrictions. We received donations for this programme valued at $54 200 and we have to date provided funding at just under $33,000. As the pandemic has continued, we have earmarked remaining funds for any future need that relates to the pandemic and affects local residents.
