Emergency Grant Recipients
Since the beginning of the BP Disaster the Gulf Coast Fund has distributed
$375,000 to 60 organizations. Below is a list of organizations that have
received emergency grants. We will continue to grants to support groups
responding to emerging situations on the ground, but in order to continue
supporting the community-led response effort, we need more support.
Please help now by donating to the Gulf Coast Fund. Your donation will
go directly to the grassroots organizations working in communities all along
the Gulf Coast on the frontlines of this disaster.
