While the nature of disasters often leads to the desire to offer immediate help, experience shows that planning projects providing longer-term assistance are more sustainable and effective.
Single Clubs and Unions are eligible to apply for grants to aid women and girls to recover from disasters such as earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, storms, volcanic eruptions, and armed conflicts. The Disaster Recovery Fund has awarded grants for projects benefiting the victims of armed conflict, flooding, and earthquakes.
Soroptimists wishing to submit a project for a Disaster Grant should contact SIE headquarters at [email protected].
