Dropbox 2017 Hurricane Relief Fund

Catholic Charities USA

Catholic Charities agencies provide essential support before, during and after disasters. They work tirelessly to ensure individuals can live their lives with the dignity that everyone deserves. These services are provided to the community regardless of religion, social or economic background. Catholic Charities has emergency response teams in the Dominican Republic and Haiti, as well as other affected areas. They have set up nine distribution sites throughout western Florida for people seeking water and food. In the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, they offered workshops to provide immigration assistance to replace lost documentation related to immigration legal status and are offering resources and support to those applying for disaster assistance.

American National Red Cross

The American Red Cross is part of a large team of partners who are providing massive emergency needs response in the form of safe shelter, food and comfort to communities affected by Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma, and Hurricane Maria. American Red Cross has launched a multi-island relief effort with government officials and disaster partners to help those affected by Hurricane Maria in the Caribbean. American Red Cross has remained in Florida, providing relief supplies and health services as well as fanning out and delivering meals to those cleaning up their homes. The Red Cross has been on the ground in Texas since before Harvey made landfall providing critical immediate support. The Red Cross is now providing financial assistance to qualified Texas households that were severely impacted by Harvey and need help taking care of emergency needs.

Center For Disaster Philanthropy

The Center for Disaster Philanthropy has created Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Harvey and the Atlantic Hurricane Season Recovery Funds. The Funds will allow donors to give now to support recovery needs that continue long after the TV cameras and news teams wrap up their coverage and turn the eye of the world away from disaster. They invest in projects and initiatives that support vulnerable populations whose lives and livelihoods have been devastated, as well as fill in gaps in funding where public resources are unavailable or scarce.

Save the Children

From nearly 100 years of experience, Save the Children knows that children are always among the most vulnerable populations during a disaster. In Puerto Rico, Save the Children has urged those who have responded to the crisis to make safety of the island's nearly 700,000 children a top priority.
Save the Children is planning to distribute Community Emergency Grants to help local child-serving organizations and programs recover from Hurricane Irma. Their emergency responders are in Florida providing family-friendly supplies and services to Hurricane Irma survivors. In addition, Save the Children is continuing its large-scale response efforts in Texas following Hurricane Harvey. Their programs in Texas will continue to support families and children in shelters, while also working with the most affected communities to begin the long process of rebuilding.

All Hands and Hearts

All Hands Volunteers is the world’s leading disaster relief organization powered by volunteers. All Hands Volunteers is on the ground in the US Virgin Islands, clearing paths to several natural springs so people can have access to a water source. All Hands Volunteers are committed to rebuilding hope for the thousands of families devastated by the catastrophic impact of Hurricane Irma. In addition, they have committed to being on the ground in Texas for the next two years helping families recover from Hurricane Harvey.

Direct Relief

Direct Relief created the Hurricane Community Health Fund in partnership with the Texas Association of Community Health Centers, the Florida Association of Community Health Centers and the National Association of Community Health Centers. The funds raised will be benefit hurricane-affected communities and vulnerable populations. The funds will be directed to community health centers and free and charitable clinics in Texas and Florida. They also committed an initial $250,000 in cash for community health centers in Puerto Rico to aid recovery efforts in Hurricane Maria's aftermath.
