Our Mission
Ad Relief of Greater Los Angeles (formerly Advertising Industry Emergency Fund) is a volunteer organization made up of advertising and promotions people brought together to help their colleagues in times of life crisis. If you or an industry peer has an accident or experiences some form of life crisis, is unable to work and can’t afford outstanding bills—and have exhausted all personal assets — Ad Relief is there. Our reason to exist is to lend a hand and help people get back on their feet again.
OUR EVENTS
Our events are a chance to raise money through ticket sales and to connect with other like-minded individuals and colleagues in the advertising and promotions industry.

Our Impact
In our early days as the Advertising Industry Emergency Fund, and today as Ad Relief of Greater Los Angeles, our organization has helped many industry colleagues get back on their feet after a serious illness, the devastating loss of a home from fire or earthquake, or after a horrific accident. Our beneficiaries come to us in their lowest moments with their emergency needs; and those who’ve been the beneficiaries of our assistance say they don’t know what they would have done if Ad Relief hadn’t been there for them.
