MongoDB Texas Winter Disaster Response and Recovery Fund

About

Millions of residents in Texas experienced historic snowfall and single digit temperatures, causing the state’s power grid to fail. The Texas community is facing an unimaginable situation of no power or running water for days. Bright Funds has established the Texas Winter Disaster Response and Recovery Fund, composed of pre-vetted nonprofits providing disaster response in Texas. Through a single tax deductible donation to the Fund, you can help provide short-term and long-term response and recovery to multiple organization initiatives. Our Fund approach is informed by expert and local recommendations, based on up to date information from disaster philanthropy and nongovernmental organization networks. The Fund's strategy is similarly dynamic and responsive: as information on local communities' needs becomes available, we will update the organizations in this Fund, directing donations towards specific organizations doing work in the areas most affected. We have initially selected organizations that are on the ground assisting with immediate relief needs.
