Deadly Winter Storms: Rush Aid Now

At least 12 dead as extreme cold leaves 250M at risk and 800,000+ without power as winter storms and frigid temperatures are blasting large swaths of the country.  The brutal system sweeping from the South through the Midwest and into the Northeast continues to drop heavy snow, sleet, ice, and dangerously low temperatures while crippling travel, schools, and infrastructure nationwide. As the National Weather Service warns of prolonged freezing conditions and widespread impacts, communities without reliable heat or shelter face escalating risk.

Greater Good Charities is working with local partners to assess the most urgent needs and provide essential aid. Donate now to help our communities prepare and respond.
