We strengthen the ability of communities to withstand disasters and recover equitably when they occur.

When disaster strikes, people rally to support those affected, but full recovery takes years – long after media attention wanes and most donations cease. Your gift will help the Center for Disaster Philanthropy transform people’s lives during the long road to recovery and provide hope for the days and months ahead. To support specific recovery efforts, see our website.

Thank you for helping communities recover!

Buddhist International Relief NGO 'ThePromise' (Founder: Ven. Myojang) is often referred to as the 'Buddhist 119.' Its operational scope spans the entire globe. Since its establishment in 2008, ThePromise, a non-profit organization recognized by the United Nations Economic and Social Council (UN ECOSOC) with special consultative status, has been dedicated to providing critical aid and support to communities worldwide affected by various disasters. The organization has aimed to be a representative relief entity for the Buddhist community, akin to the ‘Red Cross’ in the West and the ‘Red Crescent Society’ in the Islamic countries. To broaden its reach and appeal, it chose an English name with less religious connotation. 

Since its founding, International NGO ThePromise has responded to global disasters such as the 2010 Haiti earthquake, 2011 East Japan earthquake, 2015 Nepal earthquake, 2022 Ukraine conflict, and the 2023 Turkey earthquake.

**Major Initiatives**

Our work encompasses a wide range of humanitarian and environmental initiatives:

- **Climate Crisis**: We introduced climate budgeting, support disaster response and climate adaptation for immigrant families, and develop educational tools for environmental sustainability. For example, we provided emergency relief through a local youth-led team during the Timor Leste floods and deployed the nation's first Disaster Welfare Assistance Team (DWAT) for five weeks to support shelters during the East Coast wildfires.
- **Mental Health** : We support global neighbors in crisis by providing psychological aid to disaster-affected individuals, helping them regain strength. Our International Disaster Psychological Support Team AEGIS, known for its global experience, operates extensively at disaster sites. Recognized by UNHCR, our "Family-based Disaster Response Board Game," developed with support from global gaming company, Electronic Arts (EA), enhances disaster response capabilities for migrant families in Korea.
- **Humanitarian Aid**: Conducting emergency relief operations for natural disasters and providing urgent food aid to communities affected by the Myanmar coup and the Ukraine conflict.

Marshall ROC -  Restoring Our Community is a coalition helping our neighbors recover from the devastating Colorado Marshall Fire  

Marshall ROC -  Restoring Our Community  is a coalition of community organizations, funders, and government agencies bound together by the common interest: Helping our neighbors, particularly those who are most in need, recover from the Devastating Marshall Fire & Windstorms which destroyed over 1000K homes.  

Marshall ROC is led by its members, who are a dedicated community of volunteers and organizations, in collaboration with government representatives. Many organizations in the surrounding communities offered their help after the Marshall Fire. Coordinating these efforts is challenging, but important. Marshall ROC is structured as a Long Term Recovery Group (LTRG), which is a nationally recognized, tried-and-true method for coordinating limited money, muscle, and materials among multiple organizations, on behalf of individuals and communities impacted by disaster. The Marshall ROC Mission is to support and empower individuals and households affected by the Marshall Fire and windstorm to lead their own recoveries by identifying needs and coordinating assistance on their behalf

The Marshall ROC Mission – Restoring Our Community
The mission of Marshall ROC is to support and empower individuals and households affected by the Marshall Fire and windstorm to lead their own recoveries by identifying needs and coordinating assistance on their behalf. Marshall ROC is a collaborative coalition of existing agencies and all Marshall ROC related services will be provided without regard to race, creed, color, gender, disability, religious or political affiliation, documentation status, or sexual orientation. 

Disasters are, by their nature, overwhelming. If it wasn’t overwhelming, we’d call it an “inconvenience,” not a “disaster.” The Marshall Fire and Windstorm is overwhelming. Our neighbors lost hundreds of millions of dollars worth of property and belongings. So many individuals and organizations have rallied to help and it is inspiring to see how engaged and supportive the communities responding to this disaster have been. However, it is now clear the need is greater than the available resources. Marshall ROC and its members will work to help as many people as possible, while managing community expectations.
One of the most important efforts of Marshall ROC is the launch and opening of the Marshall Fire Recovery Center, which is a centralized Louisville, CO location dedicated to expediting the access and delivery of disaster related support, services and resources to fire survivors in Superior, Louisville and Unincorporated Boulder County as they navigate the complexity of their recovery. The Marshall Fire Recovery Center will house the Marshall ROC office and provide spaces for mental health, rebuilding and technical programs, and the network of professionals who are all helping to support the impacted community as well as to facilitate coordination and collaboration among local, national and governmental organizations. The Navigating Disaster for Boulder County program, operated by Lutheran Family Services – Rocky Mountains, will also be located at the Center. 
The Marshall ROC Marshall Fire Recovery Center is a testament to the power of community and our coalition of organizations. We / Marshall ROC felt it was important the financing of this Marshall Fire Recovery Center effort should be separate from donations previously collected so as to not detract from funds raised for the direct support of fire families, and we’re exceedingly grateful to the many organizations who have contributed so far to  help us launch the Recovery Center and effort:
The Center for Disaster Philanthropy (CDP) Colorado Wildfire Fire Recovery Fund
Stephen Tebo and Tebo O'Conner 
Colorado 211-United Way
The Episcopal Diocese of Colorado
Ascent Community Church
Presbyterian Disaster Assistance
United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR)

We also appreciate the in-kind contributions which have furnished the offices, conference rooms, website graphic design and technology:
A Precious Child
The University of Colorado Boulder Property Services Division

Trucks With Room To Spare Inc is a nonprofit organization focused on public safety, disaster recovery and relief.

During Hurricane Michael in 2018 there was a desperate need, many relief groups and organizations were desperately asking for transportation help.

Transportation and supplies have always been a vital need in times of disaster, many organizations are small and distributing donated supplies, so the cost of transportation is out of reach.  Especially with donations coming in from many areas of the Country and World.

These organizations are nonprofits, church groups and community organizations, that work to fill the voids that FEMA and other organizations miss, and these groups stay in the areas long after the media leaves to help in the rebuild and clean-up process for the disaster victims.

We are a group of truck drivers that have come together because we believe that “old-school” values still exist in the trucking industry, and the need to help these families is important!  So, we formed Trucks With Room to Spare.

Trucks With Room to Spare is a nonprofit who works with fellow drivers to provide transportation, warehousing, and distribution of donated supplies for these hard-hit families and communities.  Through education and community outreach we also inspire to change the industry image as well as promote safety and giving back to the people we serve daily.

Because one pallet of supplies to a community that has none can help hundreds and a truckload can impact thousands!

We promote environmental conservation and sustainability, democracy, respect for socio-environmental rights and social justice.

The Casa Socio-Environmental Fund is an organization that promotes environmental conservation and sustainability, democracy, respect for socio-environmental rights and social justice through financial support to civil society initiatives and by strengthening their capacities in South America. We have pioneered the debate on socio-environmental philanthropy in Brazil since 2005. Our mission is to generate positive impact on very diverse territories, investing in the lives of those who care for them, and establishing connections between communities and organizations.

To this end, we developed a powerful support network for small civil society initiatives — a network that mobilizes funds, provides support and strengthens capacities, thus ensuring increasing autonomy for groups spread all over South America. We believe change begins by listening, and we listen to the real protagonists of every cause we embrace: those whose lives are directly affected by any change in their territories.

We are partners of philanthropic organizations that want to support grassroots communities but find it hard to reach those groups directly. We are experienced in making sure that philanthropic funds will reach the community groups. For this, we have developed a supporting and monitoring methodology that takes into account the dynamics of the territories.

What guides us

Listening: our ears are always attentive and our doors open to receive people. For us, this is always the first step in any transformation. Listening to the demands of groups in need of support, understanding what can be done, and then helping them. Listening to feedbacks, understanding what has worked out and what has not, adjusting to the circumstances, and always improving. Whenever possible, we also seek to collect this type of feedback within our own team, where there is no power hierarchy, only different opinions and a great common goal.

Respect: there is no listening to people without respect. We assume everyone has a valuable viewpoint and an in-depth understanding of his/her own reality. We respect differences among cultures, regions, and biomes in order to maximize the impact of our support. We valorize and stimulate the protagonist place of each individual in the socio-environmental transformational process, as we believe that true change comes from the rank and file.

Trust: we trust the working capacity of each individual and each small group we support. We understand Casa Fund as a transitional space, not as a centralizing unit. We are a safe haven, we comfort the pain and uncertainties, ensuring the means to solutions, maximizing actions and opening pathways, but we are not the ones to carry out the projects.

Union: The sentence “union is strength” may sound like a cliché, but it is a motto for us. We aggregate and mobilize. The more people share our dreams of transformation, the greater will be our collective power.

Connection and collaboration: we exist to establish connections and promote collaboration. This does not mean we have to be always present or directly involved in all actions. For us, promoting joint work between two or more transformational agents is already super powerful! This way we manage to multiply our actions and actually have a significant impact on the world.

Our Numbers

Since its inception and up to 2022, the Casa Fund has supported 3,160 socio-environmental initiatives by NGOs and community groups in Brazil and South America. The grants totaled US$19 million.

Reforestation is a vital strategy for restoring biodiversity habitat. Plant trees where they are needed most around the world.

The interconnectedness of ecosystems and their living organisms means that millions of species depend on each other for survival. Reforestation is a vital strategy for restoring biodiversity habitat.

With your help, we will:

- Protect endangered species by increasing forest cover
- Restore holistic ecosystems for a range of flora and fauna
- Improve soil stability by restoring degraded areas
OVERVIEW
Everything on Earth is connected. As we lose habitat, we also lose biodiversity. This is where trees come in: reforestation helps to restore at-risk ecosystems and habitats, ultimately increasing food supply, health, and overall well-being. Your donation will help to restore forest cover around the world. Reforesting these areas will aid in the protection of endangered species, restoration of holistic ecosystems, and the improvement of soil stability.

IMPACT
By planting trees, we help create a safe haven for biodiversity, impacting all of life on Earth. The restoration of degraded ecosystems will also result in improved soil stability, ultimately improving forest cover as a whole!

TREE SPECIES
Every tree we plant will have an impact on the surrounding ecosystem, and must be selected with great care. We work with our planting partners to ensure the species we select will provide the intended benefits for wildlife and communities.

Plant Trees Where They are Needed Most

We support community based solutions in Bolivia to contribute to the conservation of the ecosystems.

About our country

Bolivia is one of the 15th most biodiverse countries in the world. The variety of bio-geographical conditions of the country, have privileged it with various type of ecosystems and a very important ethnic and sociocultural diversity, with a wealth of 36 indigenous peoples that inhabit territories of global importance, such as the Amazon rainforest, the Andes, the Great American Chaco, among others.

But in addition to that, Bolivia is facing a very complicated environmental situation. The expansion of the agribusiness as one of the main models of economic development, mining, and large infrastructure projects, are contributing to the continuous deterioration of natural resources, putting at risk the ecosystems and the rights of the communities.

In the year 2022, the country ranked third among the 10 countries with the highest deforestation worldwide. This has put a lot of pressure over the 53 million hectares of Bolivian tropical forest. Also, the national economy has an alarming dependence on the exploitation of non-renewable natural resources, without considering the country’s greatest vulnerability to climate change.

Our mission

The Fundacion Socioambiental Semilla mission is to support community-based projects that contributes to the conservation of the Bolivian ecosystems.

Our main value is that we are a locally founded foundation that was created by Bolivian environmentalists, who believe the only way to protect our ecosystems is to make timely resources available to support local grassroots organizations that are facing the negative impact of environmental devastation, and at the same time, proposing just and sustainable alternatives to protect communities’ rights and territories in all the ecosystems of the country.

Fundación Semilla's mail goal is to make culturally sensitive funding available in local currency to community-based groups and small organizations who are the most vulnerable to environmental destruction, while also the main guardians of Bolivia's most important biodiversity regions. We have developed a financing structure to coordinate the reception of resources with a proven mechanism of local donations.

Our strategy consists of a solid comprehension of the local context and challenges that Bolivian communities face. This is possible thanks to the previous experience of our founding members, whom have been working over many years with communities and indigenous groups in different ecosystems across the country. 

As part of our strategy, our Foundation’s main programs are:

1. The Amazonia program, which supports projects and initiatives that promote the sustainability and conservation of the Bolivian Amazon.
2. The GAGGA (Global Alliance for Green and Gender Action) program, which supports projects related to Gender Just Climate Solutions, Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation, the protection of critical ecosystems and the strengthening of women's leadership.
3. The Blue Foresta program, which supports independent environmental journalism in Bolivia.
4. The Chaco and Pantanal program, which aims to support projects that solve problems caused by climate change, through Nature Based Solutions (NBS) initiatives in the Great American Chaco and the Pantanal of Bolivia.
