RCEAF

Our Mission Statement:

The Renaissance Catastrophic Emergency Assistance Foundation, Inc. (RCEAF). is a non-profit organization established to assist the workers of Renaissance Festivals and other entertainment events in times of catastrophic emergency or crisis through advocacy, education, community outreach, and financial assistance.

• Founded in March 2020, as a direct response to the devastating effect the pandemic had on the entertainment industry, RCEAF is dedicated to non medical emergency assistance. Though our immediate focus was COVID-19 related loss of income, our foundation’s long term goal is to help the community with other catastrophic situations that result in an emergency causing financial hardship or loss of income.

• RCEAF is an active 501c3 non-profit corporation, registered with the state of Arizona. We can be verified in Guidestar, with a current Gold transparency rating.
  
• Our Application for Assistance is all digital, and can be filled out using any device. The goal of the digital application is to facilitate a timely response to emergency situations and is available 24/7. We use digital payment platforms whenever possible, allowing the organization to disburse financial assistance rapidly. We also use those means to accept financial donations.
