MusiCares has established a fund to support people in the music community affected by Hurricane Sandy.
MusiCares Hurricane Sandy Relief Fund
“Hurricane Sandy has been devastating and life-altering for its victims, their families and their communities,” said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy and MusiCares at Grammy.com. “As we demonstrated with our rapid and effective responses to natural disasters ranging from Hurricane Katrina to the Nashville flood, MusiCares is able to take action to provide immediate assistance to members of our music family in times of crisis. This instance is no different, and MusiCares’ safety net of resources really mirrors the generosity of the music industry at large.”
MusiCares assistance includes basic living expenses such as shelter, food, utilities, and transportation; medical expenses including doctor, dentist and hospital bills, and medications; clothing; instrument and recording equipment replacement; relocation costs; home repairs; debris removal; and more.
