DisasterLink Response Fund

Local nonprofits have a distinct advantage in responding to disasters—both during critical first hours and days and during the longer-term recovery and rehabilitation phase. By identifying trusted partners in advance, we’re making it possible for donors to rapidly deploy funding overseas. 

Give2Asia identified pre-positioned local relief organizations in our network that will enable faster disaster response funding to communities in high-risk countries. The DisasterLink Response Network is Give2Asia’s network of trusted partners in countries at high risk for natural disasters. Each member is highly invested in the areas they serve, enabling them to help communities rebuild and recover long after the immediate crisis is over. With 20 initial partners in five most disaster-prone countries as the 1st members, the Network will continue to expand to reach more countries impacted by severe climate events.  

Disasters are happening every year, and Give2Asia’s DisasterLink local partners are responding to every catastrophic disaster in their respective countries. However, some of these disasters may not receive international attention or get the support that they need. Disaster campaigns also require time and effort to reach a certain amount of support.  

Donating to this fund before a disaster happens will support Give2Asia’s DisasterLink Response Partners to respond to various levels of disasters and provide relief within days, not weeks, when it happens.
