Disaster relief
We are committed to supporting communities in the event of a crisis or natural disaster. Disasters will be declared by the board of directors of the Hope-2-Others Foundation based on the threshold commonly used by federal, state, or local emergency response agencies. Once a disaster has been declared by Hope-2-Others (via website), the disaster assistance process will open and applications will be accepted.
There are currently no declared disasters at this time. Applications are not open.
Hope-2-Others’ relief funding is designed for immediate needs such as food, water, blankets, clothing, equipment (refrigerator/generator), supplies, emergency shelter, etc. Applications for relief funding are accepted and reviewed as they are received. We understand during a crisis, emotions can run high, and the community will most likely be under distress. We will strive to notify applicants of decisions within ten business days after receipt of an application.
