VCCF最新情報#3：コネホバレー被災者基金と火災

親愛なるベンチュラ郡コミュニティ財団の皆様、

First, thank you again for your generous support of the Ventura County Community Foundation. We wanted to share an update on the progress and plans related to the Conejo Valley Victim’s Fund and the Hill Fire/ Woolsey Fire Sudden and Urgent Needs Effort.

Conejo Valley Victims Fund Update

After immediately distributing $310,000 in cash assistance and $500 prepaid Visa cards related to the Borderline shooting, we are moving forward into the final stages of financial support distribution. After arduous due diligence, we have launched an application site for victims and survivors to apply for funding: www.ConejoValleyVictimsFund.org. We are honored to partner with Give An Hour who will lead efforts to provide mental health, emotional and case management support to victims during this application process.

100% of the funds raised will continue to be used to assist the families who lost loved ones, the victims who were physically injured, and those present inside the Borderline Bar & Grill that tragic night. The payments from the Conejo Valley Victims Fund are to be apportioned in accordance with the severity of the injury to the victims arising from the disaster in Thousand Oaks, California on November 7, 2018.

Deadline for application submission is February 18, 2019.

VCCF will host two public forums to give concerned community members and those impacted by the Borderline shooting an opportunity to provide feedback and ask questions about this Draft Final Protocol which will determine the process and distribution protocols for awarding financial support to qualified applicants. This is a draft protocol. The Final Distribution Protocol, which will govern the Conejo Valley Victims Fund at the Ventura County Community Foundation, will be developed by the Special Oversight Committee, incorporating feedback from the Public Forum meetings held on January 3, 2019, and is subject to approval by the Ventura County Community Foundation.

All aspects of this Draft Final Protocol, including without limitation the classifications of claimants, distribution criteria, claims process and timetable, and amounts to be awarded, may be revised and are subject to the full and complete discretion of the Special Oversight Committee and the Fund Administrator, subject only to the approval of the Board of Directors of Ventura County Community Foundation. The Draft Final Protocol document can be found これ.

To submit your feedback on the Draft Final Protocol, please submit your comments to [email protected] or attend a public forum held on:

Thursday, January 3, 8:00am – 9:30am OR Thursday, January 3, 6:00pm – 7:30pm.

Both meetings will be held at the Scherr Forum at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza. For more information, please visit www.ConejoValleyVictimsFund.org.

Give An Hour will also host three Clinics where eligible claimants can receive direct support in completing their applications and accessing resources to support their recovery. The dates of these clinics are:

• Monday, January 14, 2019 from 12:00 noon to 8:00 p.m.
• Wednesday, January 16, 2019 from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
• Saturday, January 19, 2019 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
