Emergency Relief Angel Grants

In times of emergency and natural disasters, our hearts go out to victims and their families who face the devastating impact of life changing events. When disaster strikes, victims not only face the anguish of losing homes, loved ones, and the sense of safety, they can also lose hope.

In the wake of an emergency, natural disaster or crisis, you can start an AngeLink fundraiser and then apply for an Angel Grant to support and amplify your fundraiser. Angel Grants are distributed to verified beneficiaries to help those who may be in need of temporary shelter, food, clothing and other essential supplies. Funds are typically distributed as matching funds at the discretion of AngeLink Community Foundation to verified fundraisers and nonprofits on the ground serving victims.

At AngeLink, we stand together with those affected to support and help navigate the challenging path toward recovery and healing. During these moments of crisis, we see communities come together, demonstrating resilience and compassion and are reminded of the strength of the human spirit.

Reviewing Fundraisers

Through the AngeLink Trust and Safety Team we review and vet fundraisers and beneficiaries to ensure that funds are properly directed to those in need. Donations to this fund are tax-deductible to the extent permissible by U.S. law.
