CERT Assistance Fund Established

The Board of Directors unanimously established a permanent fund--the CERT Assistance Fund--to assist CERT volunteers who experience a catastrophic emergency.  The fund is meant to assist them by a grant towards their recovery.  Funds are collected by Friends of Dallas CERT and forwarded to the family.  For more information and to make a tax-deductible donation, click below.

Please donate to us during North Texas Giving Day.  You can schedule your donation now!  Thanks!

CERT Equipment Program Expanded and Updated

We have now expanded our CERT Equipment Program to recognized and reward CERT volunteers based on the hours they dedicate.  

 

This complements our CERT Subsidy Program which was implemented mid-2018.

 

Full details on these programs can be found on the tab for CERT Subsidy and Reward Program.

And we have changed the requirements for the Subsidy Program.  We made the section on other subsidy program participation optional.  Check out the updated form:
