ARVC Foundation > Disater Relief
In the fall of 2005, the country, specifically the Gulf region, and many of
our ARVC members, suffered a tragic natural disaster — Hurricane Katrina.
At that time, the ARVC Foundation created a Disaster Relief Fund to directly
help our member parks in the stricken states affected by Hurricane Katrina.
Since that time, the fund has grown to help any ARVC member who has suffered
a natural disaster that disrupts their business whether a fire, flooding, landslide,
ice storm, etc.
Members use the money for food, clothing, repairs, even key employee assistance.
Requests for assistance are reviewed by a team made up of members of the ARVC
Foundation and the ARVC Board of Directors. The request is considered via emails
and conference calls. The loans and grants are not meant to replace insurance
already in place at the parks, but offer assistance in filling an immediate
gap. Zero interest loans of up to $5,000 are required to be repaid within 3
years. Grants of up to $1,000 are considered gifts and are not expected to
be returned.
Importantly, all money contributed to the Disaster Relief Fund goes entirely
to help RV parks and campgrounds across the country. There are no administrative costs whatsoever.
Any donations should be sent to the “ARVC Foundation Disaster Relief
Fund”, 455 Tenderfoot Drive, Larkspur, CO 80118.
Contributions may be made anonymously, in the name of a family member, from
your business, or any other way you wish to give.
