Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, many individuals, nonprofits, governments, and corporations gave in radical ways and came together like never before to support one another. <strong>We should celebrate this.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>However, systemic inequities\u2014including in access to funding\u2014continued throughout the pandemic and until today.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recognizing this pattern is especially important as disasters increase in frequency and severity. Recovery from disasters, including pandemics, isn\u2019t a one-size-fits-all process. It\u2019s highly <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full\/10.1177\/1464993420980939#\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unequal<\/a>, with the most vulnerable people and communities bearing the brunt of long-term consequences. <\/p>\n<p>That means giving thoughtfully to communities most affected and under-resourced is a moral imperative for making the world a better place. As more resources reach these communities, more equitable recovery is possible. <\/p>\n<p>The private sector is recognized in moments of crisis for its ability to quickly mobilize resources and strengthen emergency preparedness and recovery. Your company can play a critical role in tipping the scales and giving where others do not, bringing relief to communities forgotten in the headlines.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>But the question is: Who and what is underfunded in crisis response and recovery?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>We hope this list serves as a helpful starting point and sparks new ideas for your future giving. <\/p>\n<ol>\n<h4>Humanitarian Crises<\/h4>\n<p>Funding for complex humanitarian emergencies remains a challenge. That includes war, famine, and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanitariancoalition.ca\/what-is-a-humanitarian-emergency\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">human-made<\/a> social and political crises. The United Nations\u2019 humanitarian affairs office, OCHA, <a href=\"https:\/\/gho.unocha.org\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">estimates<\/a> 274 million people will need humanitarian assistance and protection in 2022\u201431 million more people than in 2021. In monetary terms, this looks like <a href=\"https:\/\/gho.unocha.org\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$41 billion<\/a> in philanthropic giving is required to meet people\u2019s needs this year. Dedicating funding to protracted and complex humanitarian emergencies is even more critical now as <a href=\"https:\/\/gho.unocha.org\/intro\/glance\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">COVID-19<\/a> adds to the challenges. Despite new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/article\/omicron-coronavirus-variant.html?action=click&#038;pgtype=LegacyCollection&#038;state=default&#038;module=styln-coronavirus&#038;variant=show&#038;region=hub&#038;block=storyline_levelup_swipe_recirc\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">variants<\/a> and the secondary effects of COVID-19 like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/04\/06\/world\/coronavirus-domestic-violence.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">increased domestic violence<\/a>, funding for pandemic response efforts and public health programs more broadly has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelancet.com\/journals\/lancet\/article\/PIIS0140-6736(21)01258-7\/fulltext\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">slowed<\/a>. <\/p>\n<h4>LGBTQIA+, BIPOC-Led, and Mutual Aid<\/h4>\n<p>Just as certain types of crises receive less funding, so do certain communities in crisis-impacted areas. That includes <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34498778\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LGBTQIA+<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebipocproject.org\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC)<\/a>-led groups. These communities are often disproportionately affected even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vibrantcitieslab.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Framing-the-Challenge-of-Urban-Flooding.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">before disasters strike<\/a> because of their race, gender, and sexual identities. Nevertheless, they consistently receive less philanthropic funding. That is reflected in a report by Funders for LGBTQ Issues highlighting how Black LGBTQI+ communities received only <a href=\"https:\/\/lgbtfunders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/FINAL_Black-LGBTQ-Infographic_2020.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">5% of all LGBTQ funding<\/a> in the United States, thus representing less than .01% of all foundation funding in 2018. <\/p>\n<p>In good news, a 2021 report suggests Indigenous groups <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenewhumanitarian.org\/news-feature\/2021\/10\/26\/how-COVID-19-put-Native-American-needs-on-the-aid-map\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">received increased support and recognition<\/a> during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, with Indigenous people, people of color, and LBGTQI+ communities <a href=\"https:\/\/psci.princeton.edu\/tips\/2020\/8\/15\/racial-disparities-and-climate-change\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">disproportionately affected<\/a> before, during, and after disasters, future funding for these communities remains vital to support them through emergencies. That could include private funding to these groups via donations to <a href=\"https:\/\/mutualaiddisasterrelief.org\/about\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">mutual aid networks<\/a>, a practice of solidarity and supportive collaboration found within BIPOC and queer communities <a href=\"https:\/\/mutualaid.nyc\/2020\/06\/12\/the-history-of-mutual-aid-ways-to-keep-showing-up\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">for centuries<\/a> and increasingly recognized during the pandemic.    <\/p>\n<h4>Immigrant, Undocumented, and Refugee Led<\/h4>\n<p>In disaster giving, there is consistently less funding for refugee, immigrant, and <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/32834081\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">undocumented<\/a> communities. Government emergency funding\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecity.nyc\/2021\/9\/27\/22697608\/disaster-relief-fund-undocumented-new-yorkers-hurricane-ida\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">like that during Hurricane Ida<\/a>\u2014often excludes undocumented groups and those with diverse residential statuses. Inequitable funding for undocumented and immigrant communities during disasters is problematic because these communities are often <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/displaced-but-determined-nonprofit-solutions\/?rf=learn_viewpoints_neglected_crises\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">critical responders during crises<\/a>. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fwd.us\/news\/immigrant-essential-workers\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">one in five essential workers<\/a> in the US are immigrants, many of whom have been at the forefront of the COVID-19 pandemic response. Corporate funding can make a huge difference in ensuring these communities receive equitable support during and after crises\u2014support that matches the true importance of these community members.<\/p>\n<h4>Mental Health<\/h4>\n<p>Beyond overlooked communities and types of neglected crises, there are also areas of response and operations that are underfunded. One of these is mental health and psychosocial care. Funding for <a href=\"https:\/\/grist.org\/climate\/disasters-are-driving-a-mental-health-crisis-the-only-federal-program-to-address-it-is-underfunded\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">post-disaster mental health and trauma support is critical<\/a> and impacts how communities build back after a crisis. That is because disasters\u2014mostly unpredictable\u2014leave communities in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6857396\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">state of shock<\/a>. They lose familial bonds, property, and other tangibles that previously offered them security. <\/p>\n<p>When we measure the impact of disasters by their social and economic damage, rather than the emotional suffering they cause, ensuring funding for post-disaster mental health care becomes difficult. That is highly problematic for disaster-prone communities that may experience repeated trauma from recurring disasters and disproportionately impacted BIPOC individuals, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/climate-environment\/2021\/09\/26\/change-disasters-kids-science-study\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">children<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/investigatemidwest.org\/2020\/02\/14\/seeking-a-cure-mental-health-access-scarce-in-rural-farming-communities\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">rural societies<\/a>, and other populations that have less access to resources and frequently live with <a href=\"https:\/\/mhanational.org\/infographic-bipoc-and-lgbtq-mental-health\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pre-existing trauma<\/a> due to systemic inequity. Regardless of size or type, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paho.org\/disasters\/dmdocuments\/MentalHealthCarib_ch7.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">disasters can have a traumatic impact<\/a> on survivors. And that trauma requires greater attention through programming and funding.\n<\/ol>\n<p>This non-exhaustive list of underserved disaster communities and response areas may leave you feeling overwhelmed. Although companies cannot tackle the world\u2019s problems alone, their teams can play a critical role in addressing these inequities in times of disaster. <\/p>\n<p>Private corporations and their philanthropic branches accounted for 14% ($4.1 billion) of total international humanitarian assistance provided by private donors between <a href=\"https:\/\/devinit.org\/documents\/1008\/Global-Humanitarian-Assistance-Report-2021.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2015 and 2019<\/a>. From GlobalGiving\u2019s data it is clear that between 2018 and 2021, the total amount corporate donors gave to disasters grew significantly. <\/p>\n<p>Corporate giving enabled millions of dollars in emergency funds to reach community-led organizations at the front lines of disaster response in 2021. That is important because grants are often awarded to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rand.org\/content\/dam\/rand\/pubs\/perspectives\/PE100\/PE187\/RAND_PE187.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">large international organizations<\/a>. While they play an invaluable part in crisis response, local (and less visible) community-led organizations are critical partners in providing disaster relief and strengthening communities through recovery.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is important to understand that the pandemic has shaped the spike in corporate disaster giving. Nearly 60% of recent corporate giving to disasters through GlobalGiving supported COVID-19 response efforts, far outpacing overall disaster giving in the past four years. <\/p>\n<p>Although it represents substantially more funding to crises other than natural hazards in 2020, it doesn&#8217;t represent an increase in giving to humanitarian crises across the board, like the neglected crises in Yemen, Syria, and Venezuela. As much as 95% of recent corporate giving to support humanitarian crises was for COVID-19 relief efforts. While this makes sense considering the pandemic\u2019s severity, it demonstrates how some areas of disaster response end up underfunded. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Corporate-Funding-For-Humanitarian-Crises-Vs.-Natural-Hazards-2018-2021.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-222950\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Corporate-Funding-For-Humanitarian-Crises-Vs.-Natural-Hazards-2018-2021.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Corporate-Funding-For-Humanitarian-Crises-Vs.-Natural-Hazards-2018-2021-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Corporate-Funding-For-Humanitarian-Crises-Vs.-Natural-Hazards-2018-2021-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Corporate-Funding-For-Humanitarian-Crises-Vs.-Natural-Hazards-2018-2021-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 567px) 100vw, (min-width: 568px) 80vw, (min-width: 1024px) 33vw\" \/><br \/>\nBut the private sector can help ensure the most vulnerable communities are supported.
