GlobalGiving

A safe place to learn. Nutritious food on the table. Support during a crisis. The chance to live with dignity.

These needs may look different from one community to another, but they are all part of building a safer and more hopeful future.

We’re grateful to Turkish Philanthropy Funds for its generous $10,000 donation to the GlobalGiving Venezuela Earthquake Relief Fund.

This gift joins donations from across the GlobalGiving community to support trusted organizations responding to urgent needs in Venezuela.

Together, contributions to the fund are helping support efforts like Peace Winds America’s mobile health clinic, which is providing medical care and emergency relief to affected communities.

They are helping organizations like the Brazilian Red Cross, via International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies provide direct financial aid to individuals and families, retaining their dignity of choice and stimulating the local economy.

And they are helping restore educational opportunities through work like SUPERATEC’s development of educational materials, recreational activities, and school reconstruction.

Every donation adds to a larger response: helping organizations meet immediate needs while continuing to support communities throughout recovery.

Disasters don’t end when the headlines fade.

At GlobalGiving, we support vetted nonprofit partners already working in affected communities—because local leaders understand the context, hold trusted relationships, and know where support is needed most.

From urgent relief to long-term recovery, your generosity helps communities recover and rebuild.

What becomes clearer when we get closer to the work?

During a three-week journey across India, GlobalGiving Global Grants Associate Raghuvendra Singh visited Sitare Foundation, Maitri India, and Seva Mandir. In classrooms, ashrams, and village communities, he saw impact that cannot always be captured by numbers alone: new futures becoming visible, dignity and stability returning, and trust growing through relationships sustained over time.

In his new reflection, Raghuvendra explores what it means to listen carefully, resist oversimplifying, and carry context across distance.

Some acts of care are meant to grow for years. 🌱

This July, our Project of the Month supports the Rwanda Women and Youth Development Organization as it works with six rural communities in Rwanda’s Rulindo District to plant and care for 50,000 trees.

By bringing together students, teachers, families, and local leaders, the project is helping restore land affected by deforestation, strengthen environmental knowledge, and reduce risks associated with erosion and landslides. Fruit-bearing trees will also offer future sources of food and income for local households.

RWAYDAVO has already helped communities plant 40,000 trees. Now, it is building on that progress—and supporting a new generation of conservation leaders along the way.

From fast-moving flames to weeks of lingering smoke, wildfires can force families from their homes, destroy lives and livelihoods, and leave communities recovering long after the flames are extinguished.

Right now, more than 830 wildfires are burning across Canada, with smoke affecting communities across both Canada and the United States.

Donations to GlobalGiving’s Wildfire Emergency Response Fund will help vetted local organizations respond to urgent needs during wildfire emergencies around the world. As support for the fund grows, it can help make flexible funding available for immediate relief, long-term recovery, and efforts to build resilience against future fires.
