It goes without saying that times of crisis can be hugely impactful on the well being of families. As a working parent, it can be tremendously difficult to maintain professional momentum when we are overwhelmed and preoccupied with personal challenges. Some days, it may be overwhelming or even impossible to attend work at all.

Our family crisis grant is designed to provide aid to working parents experiencing crisis. Working Parents Foundation will award eligible families with necessary items until funds are exhausted. The grant application is open to all working parents. Employers are also welcome to apply on an employee’s behalf.
