Emprisia enables the Film and Television Charity to launch Covid-19 Relief Fund
Apr 08, 2020
Emprisia is proud to have worked with the Film and Television Charity to deliver a Salesforce solution to enable the launch of its Covid-19 Emergency Relief Fund today.
The Covid-19 Film and TV Emergency Relief Fund
launches today to provide much-needed support to the many thousands of active workers and freelancers who have been hit hardest by the closure of productions across the UK. Created by The Film and TV Charity in close partnership with the BFI, the fund opens for applications supported by initial donations totaling £2.5 million from Netflix, the BFI, BBC Studios, BBC Content, WarnerMedia and several generous individuals.
Alan de Sousa Caires, the charity's Director of Finance and Operations
said "Emprisia’s support has been amazing and enabled us to go from idea to live system in under 3 weeks, to rapidly deliver this much needed Fund to those in the industry impacted by the Coronavirus crisis."

The work completed on this project won 'The Best Use of Technology Award' at the Charity Times Awards 2020. Congratulations to all involved!
