Center for Disaster Philanthropy
We strengthen the ability of communities to withstand disasters and recover equitably when they occur.
When disaster strikes, people rally to support those affected, but full recovery takes years – long after media attention wanes and most donations cease. Your gift will help the Center for Disaster Philanthropy transform people’s lives during the long road to recovery and provide hope for the days and months ahead. To support specific recovery efforts, see our website.
Thank you for helping communities recover!
Fundraisers
Official fundraiser
CDP Tornado Recovery Fund
Known as “nature’s most violent storms,” the U.S. is home to more tornadoes than any other country. The Center for Disaster Philanthropy (CDP) has been active in tornado recovery since our founding. With the recent increase in tornadoes – even in the winter – there is no longer a “tornado season,” and the historical Tornado Alley stretching across the United States is growing larger. CDP’s Tornado Recovery Fund allows donors to target their contributions to meet specific medium- and long-term philanthropic goals for communities affected by tornadoes in the United States.
Official fundraiser
CDP Israel and Gaza Relief and Recovery Fund
As the war and violence in Israel and Gaza continue to escalate, the provision of and access to life-saving services have deteriorated for millions of civilians. Humanitarian aid and support are urgently needed. Guided by a principled humanitarian approach, the Center for Disaster Philanthropy’s Israel and Gaza Relief and Recovery Fund centers on the dignity and humanity of all civilians in Gaza and Israel. Through this fund, donors can support efforts to help those with the greatest immediate and long-term unmet needs.
