Welcome to CERF's Disaster Relief Message, Information and Resource Board. We have created this forum to be a place for craft artists and others in the craft art community to come together previous to and after major disasters. It is our hope this forum will facilitate direct relief assistance from the craft art community to craft artists recovering from current and past disasters, and facilitate disaster preparedness.
2008 Hurricane Season -- CERF is reaching out to artists, arts organizations, and others in the areas that have been affected by Hurricane Gustav or Hurricane Ike. Link to the preparedness and recovery resources as you take steps to minimize losses from and/or recover from a storm. When major damage does occur, use this disaster forum as a tool to locate craft artists in need and help the local arts community with recovery networking. Please help us spread the word that CERF is available to offer assistance to craft artists after disasters by forwarding a link to CERF's website to your contacts or by sending your contact information of craft artists in these regions to CERF.
Please also be aware that your support of our work during these times is essential so that we can deliver aid quickly and effectively.
