A Shoulder to Lean On
Disaster is inevitable. Preparing for it isn't. When tragedy strikes, we're prepared, with know-how, connections, and caring.

Ongoing Support
Every day, every week, every year, we're working to strengthen our network and provide assistance when the unimaginable occurs. We know that crises don't end as soon as an ambulance leaves the scene or flood waters recede. Read about how we're continuing to help those affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita through our Hurricane Relief Fund (pdf), and learn how our Israel Emergency Campaign is rebuilding communities in areas impacted by last year's war.

Care in Times of Crisis
That's why we develop and maintain relationships with a network of more than 100 local agencies around the world. We comfort people whose lives have been uprooted by terrorism and natural disasters, as soon as it happens and long after the tragedies have faded from newspaper headlines and public consciousness. We never stop reaching out, with hands and hearts.
