Administered by the National Independent Venue Foundation (NIVF), a 501(c)(3) organization, the NIVF Emergency Relief Fund (ERF) is dedicated to providing recovery relief to independent, live performance venues and promoters, both for-profit and nonprofit, across the United States experiencing a critically severe emergency due to circumstances beyond their control. At this time, our funding is focused on disaster relief tied to those directly impacted by hurricanes and fires. Priority will be provided to those working to rebuild structural damage and whose businesses were directly impacted by mandatory evacuations and closures.
