SOCAN Foundation announces the launch of the SOCAN Foundation Relief Fund for SOCAN members during the COVID-19 pandemic. “While SOCAN members are quarantining, the SOCAN Foundation offers this program to provide some financial support to music creators and publishers to get through these unprecedented times.” Said Victor Davies, President of SOCAN Foundation.
This new fund is open to all SOCAN members who have earned more than $500 in royalties in the four most recent SOCAN distributions.
The Board of Directors generously allocated a total of $500,000, which will be available for distribution from the SOCAN Foundation Relief Fund. These grants are valued at $250 each.
Applications will be accepted from June 26, 2020 until August 15, 2020. Applicants are encouraged to submit applications early as once funds are exhausted, the application portal will be closed.
