How to Help Survivors of Recent Hurricanes

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those involved and affected by Hurricane Harvey. We wish you peace, comfort, and the warmth of all those thinking of you in this troubling time.    

Disasters like the flooding that has followed Hurricane Harvey and now Irma, displacing thousands of people, always create a tremendous need for help — and a tremendous desire to provide that help. The following are a few ways and sound suggestions for doing so.  

After a disaster, many generous people want to volunteer their services or donate money or goods. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) provides information and tips on volunteering and donating responsibly after a natural disaster.  

Do not just "show up" to volunteer assistance. This actually makes things harder for responders. The following groups and organizations provide information on helping survivors of natural disasters:

• American Red Cross
• AmeriCorps (Corporation for National and Community Service)
• National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (NVOAD)
• Salvation Army
• Serve.gov

Bob Ottenhoff, president and CEO of the Center for Disaster Philanthropy, has some words of caution for those who want to help. 

"This is not the time to be donating products or even services," he says. "That's frequently the urge, and most often that is the wrong thing to do. ...With the floods blocking off streets, when warehouses are not available, there's no place for these products — there's no place to store anything, there's no place to distribute anything. And that's going to be the case for some time." 

Instead, he says, people should give money to groups they trust, and that have the ability to provide aid where it's needed most. A financial contribution to a recognized disaster relief organization is the most effective donation to make. There are several advantages to making monetary donations. They are the most needed and most efficient way of helping those impacted by disaster. This allows voluntary organizations to fund response and recovery efforts, obtain goods and services locally, and provide direct financial assistance to disaster survivors to meet their own needs. You can make a donation to an organization of your choice.
