BGMF supports Sweet Relief Covid-19 Relief Fund

April 16, 2020 by BGMF

The Bill Graham Memorial Foundation is pleased to announce that we just gave Sweet Relief a $10,000 grant in support of their Covid-19 Relief Fund. Sweet Relief was founded in 1993 by musician Victoria Williams; she was diagnosed with MS, and realized that many musicians, like herself, were unable to afford medical expenses when compromised in their ability to work. Some years ago, Sweet Relief expanded their services to also be able to help crew and musical support people as well as the musicians, composers and arrangers they had originally included. Their Cover-19 Relief Fund is now available and accepting applications. If you would like to find out more about the requirements to apply, or you would like to make a donation to the fund, you can find more information at https://www.sweetrelief.org/covid-19-fund.html.
