Discreet relief in time of personal crisis and hardship, for the music industry, by the music industry.

Those of us in the music industry have chosen this calling because we are passionate about music... we do it first and foremost for love of the work, and we hope that it will allow us to earn a living and look after our loved ones. Sometimes, though, problems occur and many of us have little in the way of a safety net.

As of 2011, there will be a helping hand: The Unison Benevolent Fund. The Unison Fund is a creation of the music industry, for the music industry and will begin in January to provide emergency financial assistance and crisis management. Over time, the fund will provide counselling services and insurance coverage at group benefit rates.

If you have made your living in the music industry, for at least two years and 55% of your career, you can qualify for assistance.

Who we are: our Board of Directors represents a wide variety of sectors in the music industry: labels, publishers, the live sector, music industry associations, and of course, artists.
