Earthquake Relief – Standard Times

Still affected by the 6.4 earthquake that devastated the city in December, Rio Dell’s recovery efforts have received a much-needed boost through the combined efforts of Rotarians and Coast Central Credit Union. Rotary District 5130, with a significant contribution from Coast Central Credit Union, has completed a months-long financing project to support local businesses that still need them.

An $8,500 contribution from Coast Central was made to the Rotary District 5130 Disaster Fund last month and distributed through grant funding to four Rio Del businesses to help them with their continued recovery.

“Small business is at the heart of Humboldt County’s economy and quality of life,” said James T. Sesa, President and CEO of Coast Central. When they are affected, we all feel the effects. It’s times like these that really show our society’s determination to work with the “people helping people” approach that is a cornerstone of credit unions. With over 77,000 members, we are honored to have the opportunity to provide this kind of support. Thanks to Rotary for being such an exceptional partner in this effort.”

This is the latest cash support provided by Rotary and District 5130 Rotary groups to help communities and businesses affected by this earthquake.

Immediately after the earthquake, the Rotary District Disaster Relief Fund provided 5,130 thousand dollars in gift cards to affected residents. Coast Central Credit Union waived the activation fee on those cards to allow residents to pick them up before Christmas. In addition, the credit union provided $5,000 in gift cards to families in the Willow Creek and Rio Dell areas in conjunction with Pay it Forward Humboldt.

“It was inspiring to be a part of Rotary’s quick and passionate response to emergencies in our community. We were able to start making grants within four days after the earthquake. After we saw what these businesses were going through, how long it took to make other resources available… We’ve been committed to helping make things better — and fast.The Coast Central facilities have been key and we really appreciate them — and by those who have these cards,” said Rotarian Ian Schatz, Gov. of Humboldt and Del Norte counties.

Jennifer Strong, Gov. of Rotary 5130, visited Eureka recently to thank Coast Central for its generous support of Rotary’s work to help Humboldt County residents and businesses and “for everything the Central Credit Union has done to help the community during this difficult time,” she said.

The Rotary Relief Fund has allocated $20,000 to support the Business Recovery Grant Program—an effort expanded with an additional $30,000 contributed by the Redwood Regional Rotary Fund, which is focused on supporting small businesses. As a result, more than 35 small businesses in Rio Del have received grants to help them recover and keep their doors open.

“I got a call from a business owner in Rio Del who wanted to say thank you. They received a gift card from us two days after the earthquake that CCCU covered the activation fee on — and then they received one of our Business Recovery Grants. They said it helped them get their doors open again and stay afloat.” open, but most importantly, they felt like people cared,” said Strong. “I think that’s why we all do what we do.”
