Climbing Coaches - Covid 19 Layoff Relief Fund
Hello Climbing Parents,
As many of you have no doubt already heard, on April 7, the Club announced that it would be laying off 600 employees effective April 26 through at least June 30. Among those employees are five of our children’s amazing climbing coaches - Chi, Justin, Molly, Emily and Ashley. While the coaches will be eligible to apply on April 26 for unemployment benefits, these benefits will not fully replace their salaries let alone cover the cost of purchasing interim health insurance coverage, for those who must do so.
We would love to rally around Chi, Justin, Molly, Emily and Ashley during this incredibly challenging and stressful time. They provide so much support in so many ways for our athletes, we would like to show our support for them! Please consider making a donation to help tide them over until, hopefully, the club reopens on July 1 and the coaches are brought back on staff.
Melanie & Aishu
