A fundraiser to provide assistance to New Orleans unhoused population. The fundraiser description is as follows: "There are reportedly 1200 unhoused people in New Orleans. More than 420 of them live on the street where they are deprived of access to running water, soap, shelter, and basic food supplies. This makes them a particularly vulnerable group during the Covid 19 pandemic in addition to the hardships and exploitations they already endure. Very little is being done on a federal level to service this population. Despite reports that the homeless people of New Orleans are being relocated to local hotels, only 175 of them have been relocated thus far. The immobile, those who experience mental instability, those who do not speak English and the undocumented will face difficulties assessing the already limited shelter even if more is provided. We are distributing supplies and food daily to those on the street, while attempting to share social distancing guidelines and information about resources throughout the city. Additionally, we are following CDC guidelines while preparing and distributing food."

The COVID-19 virus has necessitated the closure of Preservation Hall and all music venues in New Orleans for the foreseeable future. Due to these cancellations, our musical collective faces an unprecedented challenge without work, with the growing health risk in New Orleans and indefinite economic uncertainties for all musicians and those tied to the tourism and entertainment industries. To address these challenges, the Preservation Hall Foundation has launched the Legacy Program Emergency Relief Fund to assist our musical collective affected by the Coronavirus pandemic. The Legacy Program Emergency Fund assists the 61 musicians to be used towards medical expenses, lodging, food, and other vital living expenses due to illness or loss of work. While we hope the health risk is short term, the economic impact will have lasting repercussions. Today, we are marshaling all of our resources towards caring for our musical collective and helping them weather this crisis. It's vital that we get resources into their hands immediately in order to meet their critical needs. The mission of the Preservation Hall Foundation is to protect, preserve and perpetuate New Orleans music. None of that would be possible without our cherished collective of musicians who play, teach, create, compose, entertain and enrich our lives on a daily basis. Jazz musicians are experts at improvising. We'll get through this with your help. Please join us in helping our musical collective and ensuring the protection of our vital culture in New Orleans.
