ERD Gives Additional Grant to Help Unemployed


Posted: 4/30/2002

Episcopal Relief and Development has given a $40,000 grant to the Diocese of Long Island to provide emergency financial assistance to those left unemployed following the attacks on the World Trade Center. The funds will help the Diocese respond to individuals in need, many of whom are undocumented immigrants.


How ERD is making a difference...

We lift communities out of poverty around the world in areas such as Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. We partner with local organizations in the Anglican Communion to ensure vulnerable people have healthy food to eat and get proper health care.

We provide critical supplies to people through local dioceses after natural and human-made disasters. We partner with the dioceses to get life-saving aid to children and their families and stay with communities after the crisis to provide ongoing support.
