to RV Learning Center
Funds
Will Establish a New RV Dealership Employee Emergency Relief Program
(Fairfax, VA) – The RV Dealership Employee Emergency Relief
Program is a new joint initiative between the Ron & Lisa Fenech Family
Foundation and the Mike Molino RV Learning Center designed to provide financial
assistance to RV dealership employees experiencing hardship due to natural
disasters and other catastrophic events that lead to major expense or loss of
income.
Current employees of RV dealerships can apply for one-time grants
of up to $2,500. Hardships that may
qualify for assistance include immediate family health issues and catastrophic incidents such as damage due to natural
disasters, home fires, or flooding. The program is expressly for all RV
dealership employees. RV dealership owners/principals are not eligible.
“Our own
family has seen first-hand how emergency financial assistance can make a big difference
to families and individuals experiencing a health crisis or other catastrophic
event,” said Ron Fenech, president and co-founder of Brinkley RV. “The RV business
has been very good to me and my family. This program is a way for us to give something
back to the industry.”
“Helping
dealership employees is a core value of the RV Learning Center,” said RV
Learning Center Chairman of the Board Jeff Pastore. “We thank Ron, and the
Fenech family, for supporting dealership employees through this special
emergency relief program that will provide some financial relief during
difficult times.”
Application forms are available online through the RV
Learning Center website at
this link. Approved funds will be disbursed directly to
the employee or a designated service provider on the employee's behalf.
The RV Learning Center, a 501c3 charitable organization, is
supported by dealers, manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, and other RV
industry members committed to dealership education and the high level of
customer service provided by educated employees. For more information, visit
