Meaningful Disaster Relief: Providing Support from Response to Recovery
When disaster hits, how do organizations best respond? While it’s not possible to predict disasters, it is possible to have strategies in place to help quickly mobilize your company and employees. And while that initial response usually focuses on immediate relief, what happens after the headlines fade? Long-term recovery is just as critical—yet often underfunded and overlooked.
Join us for an insightful discussion on the full lifecycle of disaster relief, from rapid response to sustained recovery. Learn how your organization can build meaningful partnerships with nonprofits to maximize impact beyond the initial crisis.
