EXPERTISE
Why Employees 1st? Our network has granted more than $160 million in disaster relief.
We are a team made up of veterans who have worked in the disaster relief industry for over 17 years. Located on the Gulf Coast, we know hardship. We’ve seen storms knock down our families, friends and co-workers. And that’s why our purpose is to faithfully deliver hardship grants.
People struck by disasters get turned around. So we’ve made our online application process simple. But our staff is also on the other end of the line when workers need extra help getting the money they need. With a system that is secure, personal and efficient, we deliver assistance to help people return to their normal lives. Your employees: they are like your family. Protect them with Employees 1st.
Employees 1st is part of a network of nonprofits and community foundations. Our program was started by the Baton Rouge Area Foundation, which has awarded more than $700 million over nearly 60 years and is among the largest community foundations in the nation.
