How You Can Help: Donate to Hurricane Fiona Relief
On September 18, Hurricane Fiona made landfall in Puerto Rico, which caused flooding, mudslides, and an island-wide power blackout. Shortly after hitting Puerto Rico, Fiona moved North West, causing damage across the Dominican Republic, and along Canada’s Atlantic Coast. The GoFundMe community is coming together to help people who are raising money for immediate emergency relief and support for long-term recovery. Donate to verified Hurricane Fiona relief fundraisers today to help people rebuild and recover. Our Trust & Safety team will continue to update this page with more fundraisers as they are verified.
