Open Air Workers | INCLUSIVE ACTION FUND
Inclusive Action has set up the “Open Air Worker Emergency Fund” to support outdoor workers impacted by the fires, including street vendors, gardeners, recyclers and other outdoor workers who have lost incomes and maybe their homes in the fires. The fund aims to assist workers most affected by providing a one-time $500 cash assistance.

To be eligible for funding, community members must meet all of the following qualifications:
• Live or work in areas directly impacted by the fires
• Primarily work outdoors, (e.g. as a street vendor, landscape worker, recycler, etc.)
• Have experienced a loss of income/property/belongings due to fires
The English application is here, and the Spanish application is here. The application will close this Friday, January 17th at 5pm. For Frequently Asked Questions, see here.

Please help us uplift this fund and share it with your community members and network. See our Instagram post here.

Contact the Development Team at development@inclusiveaction.org to support the ongoing effort to support affected workers such as street vendors, landscapers, recyclers, carwash workers, and etc. Inclusive Action has raised $500,000 from funding partners, but we anticipate that the need for aid will be at least 3-4 times that amount.
