AARC Disaster Relief Fund Activated for Victims of Matthew

Flooding

AARC members in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina who sustained damage as a result of Hurricane Matthew may now be eligible for assistance via the AARC’s Disaster Relief Fund.

Those living in federally-declared disaster areas can apply for a grant of up to $500, either online or by mail using our downloadable application form. Applications will be reviewed at the AARC executive office, and will then be sent on to the president of the state society for verification and a recommendation of action.

Since 1992, the AARC Disaster Relief Fund has been used to assist members following hurricanes in Florida and Hawaii, earthquakes and fires in California, flooding in the Midwestern states, tornadoes in numerous areas of the country, and in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The Disaster Fund is open for six months from the date of the disaster.

The fund is all about AARC members helping members.

Put “Disaster Fund” in the memo section of the check.
