  • Be a thought leader. We will provide leadership in transforming the way government and philanthropy respond to disasters.
  • Coordination. We will help philanthropists coordinate giving across sectors to achieve maximum impact, leverage and timing of gifts.
  • Increase effectiveness and impact. We will help to increase the effectiveness of donor dollars given for disasters.
