Communities across South Asia are reeling from the impacts of back-to-back floods and storms, most recently in Nepal where dozens of people have been killed. From Kerala in India to Sylhet and Feni in Bangladesh, flooding and landslides have caused widespread destruction across the region, displacing millions and killing hundreds of people. Your donation to the South Asia Flood Relief Fund will provide emergency relief and long-term support to the most-affected communities.
Devastating flooding is affecting multiple regions in Bangladesh, affecting millions of people already impacted by political unrest, violence, and displacement in some of the most vulnerable communities in the world. In Kerala, torrential rains have caused massive landslides that swept away entire villages, killing at least 158 people and leaving dozens more missing. And in Pakistan, at least 209 lives have already been lost this monsoon season, with additional devastating storms expected.
All donations to this fund will support flood-affected communities in South Asia, including places like Nepal, with a priority focus on the most disadvantaged and overlooked communities. Initially, the fund will help first responders meet survivors' immediate needs for food, fuel, clean water, medicine, and shelter. It will also support long-term recovery efforts run by local, vetted organizations in impacted areas, particularly those working with historically underserved communities.

When a disaster strikes, recovery efforts led by people who live and work in affected communities are often overlooked and underfunded. GlobalGiving is changing this reality. Since 2004, we've been shifting decision-making power to crises-affected communities through trust-based grantmaking and support.
We make it easy, quick, and safe to support people on the ground who understand needs in their communities better than anyone else.
They were there long before the news cameras arrived, and they’ll be there long after the cameras leave. They know how to make their communities more resilient to future disasters, and they’re already hard at work. GlobalGiving puts donations and grants directly into their hands. Because the status quo—which gives the vast majority of funding to a few large organizations—doesn’t make sense.
