Employees Resource Foundation

The Employees Resource Foundation was created by a group of dedicated Eastern Suffolk BOCES employees who sought to meet the needs of their fellow ESBOCES employees.

The goal of the foundation is to provide temporary financial assistance to employees who are facing a catastrophic event in their lives.

This assistance is not meant to be a permanent solution, but to provide aid in getting past a fiscal crisis when no other monetary help is available. Some examples of a catastrophic event may be sudden loss of household income, or a critical illness.

All full-time employees are eligible to apply by completing an intake form and submitting it directly to the ERF Executive Director, who is an ESBOCES retiree.

All applications are kept confidential and are shared with no one, not even the ERF board officers and board members.

After review of the intake form, applicants will be contacted directly by the Executive Director.
