CECO Raising Funds for Employees Impacted by Storm

The San Diego County Employee’s Charitable Organization (CECO) started a Flood Relief Fund to assist eligible employees and contracted employees impacted by the storm.

CECO has distributed more than $7 million to local non-profits and County employees/retirees experiencing a crisis since 1956. Continuing this giving legacy would not be possible without donations.

To donate to the CECO Flood Relief Fund, visit Donorbox online.

To apply for a Flood Relief Fund grant, submit a crisis fund application. The maximum grant amount is $1,500. Application requests may assist with repairs, household items, food, temporary hotel relocation, and other items impacted by flood damage. Applicants must provide photos of damage from the Jan. 22 storm. The program will close on Feb. 29.

The County proclaimed a local emergency after a severe storm led to flooding and damage across the region. The Office of Emergency Services is activated and continues to coordinate recovery efforts with local cities and other agencies.

You can learn more about the County’s recovery efforts at Alert San Diego, including information about a damage assessment survey for impacted residents and businesses. 

Information from the survey will be used to help the County assess the extent of local impacts and advocate on behalf of the community for state and federal assistance. Completing this form does not guarantee you will be eligible for disaster relief assistance and is not a substitute for submitting a claim with your insurance company.

It's important to have a personal disaster plan to make sure you and your family are ready for an emergency. Alert San Diego has tips on how to prepare for different disaster situations.
