Want to join us in helping those that give us so much through music? This year for Giving Tuesday, we are raising much-needed funds for our COVID-19 Fund which helps musicians and music industry workers that have been greatly impacted by the ongoing pandemic. Although live music is slowly coming back, there are still hundreds of thousands of crew and musicians that are completely out of work. You can make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500. Every little bit helps. 

Funds raised through this campaign will help all types of career musicians and music industry workers who are struggling to make ends meet while facing physical and mental illness, disability, or age-related problems.

When the pandemic first hit, the devastation of the music industry was intense and widely impacted all those that were in it. Each concert, tour, or festival that was cancelled meant cancelled work for not just the musicians, but the crew that made those shows possible. They were in the business of bringing people together, and now being together was no longer safe. Not only was there source of income gone, but so was the ability to gather with their community. 

Immediately, we at Sweet Relief stepped up and started the COVID-19 Fund. This fund was specially designed to help anyone that lost work due to cancellations. The grants we provide pay for things like food, rent, bills, and other vital living expenses. ​
