The project will provide emergency funding to international and locally driven relief efforts, providing food, medicine, and other essential supplies to address impacted by these floods.

We believe that organizations that are deeply rooted in local communities are often in the best position to provide long-term support for disaster victims.

By funding the relief efforts of local organizations, donations to this fund have the potential to build stronger disaster-response capacity so that these organizations are better equipped to face future disasters. GlobalGiving group will post reports about how funds have been used and will email these reports to donors and subscribers.  less
