Disaster Response United States Project #66990

Hurricane Milton Relief Fund

What's Happening and How to Help

We believe that organizations that are deeply rooted in local communities are in the best position to provide long-term support for survivors of natural disasters like these. By funding the relief efforts of local organizations, donations to this fund have the potential to build stronger response capacity so that these organizations are better equipped to face future challenges.

The projects listed below are led by vetted GlobalGiving partners responding to this disaster. You can donate directly to a specific project or to GlobalGiving’s Hurricane Milton Relief Fund and we'll allocate it to where it's needed most. GlobalGiving will post reports about how your donation has been put to use.

Support Hurricane Milton Relief for Floridians

by All Hands and Hearts

Hurricane Milton slammed into Siesta Key on 9 October as a Category 3 hurricane with destructive winds, heavy coastal storm surge and widespread inland flooding. The same vulnerable communities in the greater Tampa Bay region that flooded when Hurricane Helene roared ashore on 26 September were inundated for a second time in two weeks. All Hands and Hearts will provide critical cleanup in underserved areas supporting the community's own locally-driven response.

Hurricane Milton Relief

by Unity In Disasters

After Hurricane Milton response phase, Unity in Disasters will begin identifying up to 75 displaced families and assist with move-in, relocation essential items. This phase will also focus on the elderly, special needs population and the under- and uninsured by providing assistance with minor home repairs to about 75 homeowners.

Hurricane Survival Kits to 100 Migrant Families

by Florida Immigrant Coalition Inc

The Florida Immigrant Coalition will deliver 100 hurricane survival kits with water, non-perishable food items, first aid kits, and power banks to 100 migrant families in Florida who can't access State disaster aid due to their immigration status. This leaves these migrant families extremely vulnerable to the destruction resulting from hurricanes which are a frequent natural disaster in Florida. With your help we can provide these critical resources to keep migrant families in Florida safe.

Period Packs for Hurricane Survivors

by Fihri Foundation Inc.

When Hurricanes Helene and Milton hit the coasts of North Carolina and Florida, they left communities facing enormous challenges. In the aftermath, one critical need has often been overlooked: access to period products for the women and girls who are working to rebuild their lives. Periods don't stop during a crisis, and for many displaced women, managing their health with dignity becomes difficult when essential supplies are scarce.

About GlobalGiving’s Disaster Response

When a disaster strikes, recovery efforts led by people who live and work in affected communities are often overlooked and underfunded. GlobalGiving is changing this reality. Since 2004, we've been shifting decision-making power to crises-affected communities through trust-based grantmaking and support.

We make it easy, quick, and safe to support people on the ground who understand needs in their communities better than anyone else.

They were there long before the news cameras arrived, and they’ll be there long after the cameras leave. They know how to make their communities more resilient to future disasters, and they’re already hard at work. GlobalGiving puts donations and grants directly into their hands. Because the status quo—which gives the vast majority of funding to a few large organizations—doesn’t make sense.
