The funding will be used to provide ongoing support for members and the sector during this time
Benevolent Fund
The Museums Association Benevolent Fund exists to support MA members facing financial difficulties and to provide financial support for professional development.
We recognise the severe impact that the Covid-19 pandemic is having on the financial situation of those working in and with museums. In light of these difficult circumstances, the MA Benevolent Fund is providing a number of new funding opportunities to support individuals in the sector at this time.
