The Bill Graham Memorial Foundation is delighted to be partnering with Sweet Relief Musicians Fund in creating the THE BGP REMEMBERS FUND to lend a hand to those in the music and arts world who find themselves in need due to the long and far-reaching effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. While we are beginning to see some light, it looks to be a slow and curvy road to full recovery in the music and arts world.
100% of the money donated to this fund will go toward helping folks within our extended communities - the artists, as well as the many “behind the scenes” workers without whom the show truly could not go on. Contributions to this fund will help to pay for medical expenses, housing, food and vital living expense such as utilities, clothing, transportation, program services and counseling.
This fund is currently active and we welcome applications from anyone in the broader "Bill Graham Communities” who feel they could use a hand.

I’ve had the pleasure of serving as the Executive Director of the Bill Graham Memorial Foundation since 2010. Over the years I have done a lot of thinking about the effect that Bill Graham and his work had upon so many of us. It is amazing to me how knowing or working with Bill connected all of us, and that those connections have remained so indelibly strong over all these years. We hope that the THE BGP REMEMBERS FUND can be of assistance to anyone who feels a part of this constant and yet ever-changing community, and finds themselves in need due to the twists and turns that the Pandemic has brought our way.
