Family Necessity Kits
Our Family Necessity Kits are provided after every disaster and are a key component of what GEF is. Throughout our global branches, we are always prepositioned with our boxes in order to respond quickly after a disaster. Our boxes are filled with food, water, hygiene supplies, and other region-specific supplies. This could include mosquito nets, cleaning supplies, cold weather materials, etc.
BStrong Cash Cards
In collaboration with Bethenny Frankel's BStrong, GEF is able to provide those affected by a crisis with immediate financial assistance. In the first few hours and days after a disaster, many people are just in need of quick funds to help them get by.
Rental Assistance
Housing security is a major threat after disaster that leaves families and individuals extremely vulnerable while waiting for insurance or government assistance. GEF provides rental assistance to help families regain housing quickly.
Small Business Grants
When a disaster strikes, loss of income is an unfortunate outcome for many that severely affects the possibility of recovery. GEF has been able to provide financial support to small businesses so business owners can recover and continue to support themselves and their communities.
Residential Rebuilds and Repairs
Being affected by a natural or man-made disaster is devastating for families and individuals. Losing one’s home is catastrophic. GEF deeply empathizes with those who have had their homes impacted, and therefore created a program to undertake residential rebuilding projects.
