The Actors Fund Announces Name Change

Published May 10, 2022   |  By Musical Artists  |  Post in All Areas

AGMA is pleased to share that as of May 2022, The Actors Fund is now the Entertainment Community Fund. For over 140 years, The Actors Fund has helped everyone who works in performing arts and entertainment across the country. The new name is designed to be more inclusive and representative of the diverse professions that they serve.

The Entertainment Community Fund is a national human services organization with a history of helping all those who make the performing arts and entertainment possible—whether they work on stage, in front of the camera, or behind the scenes—in theater, film, dance, music, TV, opera and radio. Through programs that focus on the unique health and wellness, career and life, and housing needs of our community, they support a life in the arts, provide a safety net in times of need, and help people maintain stability and find resiliency in a business that is anything but stable.

While the name has changed, the mission remains constant. The Fund exists, as it always has, to be there for all those in our community.
