bullhorn media - The Unison Benevolent FundThe Unison Benevolent Fund is an assistance and referral program - created and administered for the music industry, by the music industry. Unison is designed to provide discreet relief to music industry personnel in times of personal hardship and crisis. Because so many are self-employed, they have no access to pension plans, unemployment insurance, employee assistance programs, sick leave and medical benefits. When tragedy strikes, many are unprepared to deal with the devastating financial and emotional burdens left in its wake. For more information please visit: unisonfund.ca
