Jazz & Heritage Music Relief Fund – A statewide relief fund to support Louisiana’s music community Back to Jazz & Heritage If you’ve ever been saved by music, here is your chance to return the favor. Donate Now Jazz & Heritage Music Relief Fund The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation, the non- profit organization that owns the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival presented by Shell, has established the Jazz & Heritage Music Relief Fund – a statewide relief fund to support Louisiana musicians who have lost income amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This unprecedented crisis has led to the indefinite cancellation of gigs, event postponements, and venue closures around the world. It has left many Louisiana musicians and others who work in the music industry facing a total or near-total loss of income for the foreseeable future.

The goal of this fund is to help our musicians impacted by quarantine, disruptions of income, and other challenges, while ensuring an equitable distribution of funds.” Don Marshall, Executive Director Jazz & Heritage Foundation The Jazz & Heritage Music Relief Fund has already provided emergency grants to 2500 musicians, music workers, and culture bearers across Louisiana, thanks to the generous support of donors near and far. As the pandemic rolls on, there are many more in our music community who need our help. The Jazz & Heritage Foundation exists to sow the seeds of our unique culture for generations to come.
