Apply for Aid
The LBBET乐博 Disaster Relief Fund is here to help you rebuild your life. Funding, if awarded to you, is intended to be emergency cash for short-term immediate needs such as clothing, food, bills, supplies & tool replacement. This Fund does not assist with the rebuilding of salons/spas, schools or homes. Need is assessed on an individual basis only, not on behalf of entire salons, spas, or schools. If you are an industry professional that has been affected by a natural disaster, apply for aid today.
To help us review your application as quickly as possible, please complete all requested fields accurately and be sure to provide complete information describing the total damage incurred. If we find a response to be unclear and need to follow up with you for additional information, this could delay the receipt of your aid funding by a week or more.
