ACA re-opens COVID-19 Emergency Assistance Fund

The Australian Cricketers' Association is re-opening the COVID-19 Emergency Assistance Fund for members.

The Fund was launched last year to support ACA Members experiencing unexpected and temporary financial hardship in the wake of COVID-19. With the current lockdowns and ongoing uncertainty, this Fund will again be available to those who need it during the next two months.

Support may be provided in the form of a small grant or loan depending on each Member’s personal situation, with each application carefully considered by a Committee on its merits. Members are able to receive up to $2,000 in assistance.

You can access the Emergency Assistance Fund Application form here.

If you have any queries regarding the Emergency Assistance Fund please contact Megan Pauwels at mpauwels@auscricket.com.au or call 03 9698 7207.

Members experiencing acute and ongoing hardship may also want to consider contacting Carla Dziwoki who manages the ACA’s Hardship Fund. You can contact her at cdziwoki@auscricket.com.au.
