Hurricane Otis Central Relief Fund

On October 25th, a Category 5 hurricane touched down in Acapulco, Mexico. Many people were injured and killed, and thousands of homes, businesses, and communities were damaged or destroyed completely.

We created this fund to give caring people a way to provide fast, direct help to those affected by this tragic event. Your donation will provide critical funding support to nonprofit organizations that are giving out cash grants to individuals in Acapulco, providing access to essentials like food, water and shelter, and helping with relief and recovery efforts.

Thank you for your generous donation. Together we can make a difference for the people of Acapulco. Initial granting from this fund will benefit Cadena, a local nonprofit providing cash grants to people personally affected to help with immediate needs and recovery. As more funds are raised, we will post updated of other nonprofits supported too.

If you would like to donate to this Fund via stock, ACH/wire, crypto, DAF, check, or by Private Foundation please visit https://www.gofundme.org/off-platform-donations/, and we will add your donation to this fund as an offline donation so that your contribution is recognized on this Fund page.

GoFundMe.org is a 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 81-2279757). Its mission is to provide fast and effective relief to victims of disaster, and to fund education and other charitable initiatives. Since 2017, GoFundMe.org has raised over $150 million, for distribution to nonprofit organizations serving the same mission, and to individuals who are part of the charitable class. It strives to eliminate the paradox of choice for donors by providing a centralized place to give, knowing that those dollars are disbursed to the right organizations and people. GoFundMe.org operated at a 96% efficient rate, meaning that $.96 on every dollar given, goes straight to delivering help, not our admin costs. Donations to this fund are tax-deductible to the extent permissible by law. Money will be given at the discretion of GoFundMe.org as the need arises.
