Funded by Charles River Laboratories, the Charles River Employee Relief Fund was created to help employees who are facing financial hardship immediately after a natural disaster or an unforeseen personal hardship.
At a later date, we will open up the opportunity for Charles River employees to be able to individually donate to directly support this program, using this secure site for you to make a donation with your credit/debit card. Every contribution helps, and your donation will support a tax-free grant (USA) to help a fellow employee in need when they are facing the unexpected. Stay tuned for details.
All donations to the fund at the Emergency Assistance Foundation, Inc. are tax deductible in the U.S. The EIN# for the Emergency Assistance Foundation is 45-1813056.
If you are experiencing a personal hardship or the effects of a qualified disaster, you can apply for a grant for financial assistance. Please read the Application FAQs to see if you qualify.
Emergency Assistance Foundation, Inc. administers all fund activities and, when needed, assists applicants with their grant applications. Charles River Laboratories will not have any insight into the grant process unless a grant recipient chooses to share his or her story.
