New Disaster Recovery Fund Launched to Focus on Long Term Needs
When disaster strikes, there is an arc to charitable giving. We give immediately because we want to respond quickly. But our attention, and our giving, is quickly focused elsewhere. However, the ongoing needs of the affected community are frequently unmet and even increase with time. The goal of long-term recovery is often outside our scope of understanding. For example, few of us could foresee that after the devastating earthquakes that nearly leveled Nepal in April and May 2015, human trafficking would affect the recovery process, along with impacting the basic needs of food, clothing, shelter.
You can change that, and America's Charities Disaster Recovery Fund presented by Center for Disaster Philanthropy has been created to help individual donors, companies and their employees be part of this solution.
