The
Signature Inspire Foundation seeks to provide support to stakeholders in times
of catastrophic events. A committee
reviews all requests for assistance.
Awards are determined on a case-by-case basis and the amount of your
assistance may not equal the amount you requested. Depending on the situation, you may be asked
to provide documentation in PDF format that supports the details of your
emergency.
The
emergency assistance program is available to eligible full-time and part-time
employees who are in good standing and meet the need-based financial qualifications and are experiencing financial
hardship. Certain times of crisis or emergencies do not require a
financial-need-based qualification, but they are rare (ex. House fire,
tornado). All Signature Inspire Foundation grants will be applied to a
qualifying charitable class and must show financial need. The Foundation has
adopted an industry best practice standard of defining charitable class as 350%
times the federal poverty guidelines per person/family members in a household.
