EUStaff4Climate launch COVID-19 solidarity fund with King Baudouin Foundation
EUStaff4Climate, in cooperation with EFC member King Baudouin Foundation, have created a fund for EU staff to support the response to the COVID-19 crisis.
The solidarity fund will seek to address the immediate needs of civil protection agencies, hospitals, health organisations and NGOs that are part of the emergency response to COVID-19. EUstaff4Climate has proposed to their colleagues across the EU institutions to donate at least 2% of their monthly salaries to help support both the emergency and the recovery phase.
The partnership with King Baudouin Foundation, and through them, Transnational Giving Europe, will help the fund to identify the most urgent needs in different countries and ensure a coordinated response.
