Relief Done Right
Disaster response requires rapid mobilization, but the help must be of the right type. Direct Relief’s efforts are fast, yet always in direct response to specific requests from local partners and are coordinated with other organizations and public agencies to ensure the most efficient use of resources.
Wildfire Relief
Direct Relief is supporting medical facilities, first response agencies and communities affected by wildfires in the U.S. and throughout the world with requested fire-related medical items and emergency gear.
Hurricane Relief
Direct Relief responds each hurricane season before disaster strikes by staging emergency medicine with health facilities in hurricane-prone regions of the Gulf Coast and Caribbean.

Each disaster has specific characteristics that are dependent upon local facts and circumstances.
