ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, CAF America announced the launch of the Global Relief Navigator, a donation tool that provides an interactive map of vetted partners responding to current crises. This map allows U.S. donors to track disaster events and the trusted organizations responding to them in real time. With CAF America's Global Relief Navigator, donors can confidently support programs providing immediate relief or long-term rebuilding efforts.

"In times of crisis, donors often struggle to direct their contributions to first responders and provide immediate relief," says CAF America's President and CEO, Jessie Krafft. "With our Global Relief Navigator, donors can make informed decisions using live needs assessments from organizations on the ground, ensuring their donations support vital rebuilding efforts."

When a disaster occurs, our team identifies and confirms the responding organizations. Once their response is verified, only these vetted and eligible charities are listed on the Global Relief Navigator. Donors can then choose to contribute in one of two ways: as a one-time single gift, or through their Donor Advised Fund with CAF America.

Developed and maintained through the generous support of the Citi Foundation, the Global Relief Navigator is powered by our industry-leading validation protocols. The network of validated nonprofits in 135 countries that CAF America has built allows donors to better facilitate efficient, impactful international grantmaking.
