The immediate needs of those affected by the wildfires are great, and the recovery process will be long and difficult in communities throughout several states. The list below are organizations providing immediate and long-term relief. Please note donations to this Fund will be distributed equally to the organizations listed below. If you would only like to donate directly to one or more, but not all, please use the campaign option and select only the organization(s) or you can upload your receipt and select the wildfire campaign.

In support of those in the path of Hurricane Florence, which is projected to be the most devastating hurricane to hit the region in decades, Bright Funds has established the Hurricane Florence Disaster Response and Recovery Fund. This Fund is comprised of pre-vetted nonprofits providing disaster response in the region. Through a single tax deductible donation to the Fund, you can support multiple organizations’ initiatives to provide short-term and long-term response and recovery. Our Fund approach is informed by expert and local recommendations from the Center for Disaster Philanthropy. We have initially selected organizations that are on the ground assisting with immediate relief needs, including rescue efforts and medical assistance. The composition of nonprofits in this Fund is subject to change as we learn more about the needs on the ground.

Together, friends can do some amazing things. Join me in supporting this diverse group of causes nominated by my incredible group of Facebook friends.
