Support relief efforts for Morocco’s earthquake victims

A powerful earthquake struck Morocco in the night of September 8, about 50 miles from the city of Marrakesh, killing well over one thousand people and raising the specter of a humanitarian disaster. The King Baudouin Foundation United States (KBFUS) is mobilizing funds for on-the-ground partners working on relief and recovery in the affected regions. Thousands of people are in urgent need of shelter, food, drinking water, medicines and health services. More specific numbers will become clear in the coming days. Current partners include:

Moroccan Red Crescent: https://www.ifrc.org/article/morocco-earthquake-ifrc-and-moroccan-red-crescent-response-date 
Banque Alimentaire: https://banquealimentaire.ma/en/
International Blue Crescent Relief and Development Foundation (IBC): https://ibc.org.tr/EN/1641/morocco-has-been-hit-by-a-6-8-magnitude-earthquake

KBFUS is a 501(c)(3) public charity. Donors may claim the maximum tax benefits allowed by U.S. tax law for their contributions. Should you prefer to support another local organization working on relief and recovery in Morocco, please email us at info@kbfus.org. We will be happy to help.
