This past week, heavy rain and strong winds wreaked havoc in many areas along the Eastern Seaboard, producing flooding, widespread power outages and a few casualties.
As this storm did its damage, a major winter storm was forecast to slam the West Coast. At the same time, communities in Tennessee are still recovering from early December’s deadly tornado outbreak.
If your rental store or employees are severely impacted by natural disasters, know that the ARA Foundation’s Disaster Relief Grants are here to assist.
Two types of grants are available:
- Business Disaster Relief Grants offer between $500 and $2,500. They are designed to help rental businesses rebuild.
- Employee Disaster Relief Grants range from $500 to $2,000. They can help employees get back on their feet. Business owners must apply for these grants on behalf of their employees.
