“There is so much uncertainty in the world right now as we come to grips with the pandemic,” said UWPH Executive Director Ryan Erb. “To the best of our ability, we want to make sure people get the support they need. Individuals and families who suddenly find themselves struggling need to know there is a safety net to catch them, to make sure their health and the health of the people they care about is the priority.”
The COVID-19 Urgent Needs Fund assists organizations helping individuals and families in need. Organizations apply to UWPH and a volunteer committee ensures each application is reviewed quickly so funds are distributed as soon as possible. Applications are open.
