“The summit was inspiring, empowering and motivating. I’m so happy to have been a part of it and even more excited to keep the momentum going. Thank you to EAF for being such a phenomenal partner and for hosting such a successful event—can’t wait for the next one!”
"Company relief funds support working families and lessen the burden on government resources. They’re also a great way for organizations to take care of their own. Big thanks to the team at the Emergency Assistance Foundation for an informative and engaging conference."
“Had a fantastic time speaking on a panel at Emergency Assistance Foundation's Granting Hope 2024 Summit. Feeling inspired having so many people focused on creating a financial safety net for their employees. We've seen first hand the impact hardship funds can have on financial and emotional well being. So whether you are just getting started or have been doing it for many years, cheers on the amazing work. This is how we help each other.”
“Thank you for hosting such an intentionally designed experience for relief fund leads, Emergency Assistance Foundation.”
