Afghanistan Earthquake Relief Fund

On June 22, 2022, a 6.1 magnitude earthquake struck eastern Afghanistan killing 1,000 and injuring over 1,500. The earthquake caused hundreds of homes to collapse overnight, adding to the compounding crises the country is facing.

To support those affected, donations to this fundraiser will be distributed to verified nonprofit organizations providing humanitarian relief. In partnership with Global Giving, we are collaborating to identify local grantees who are currently providing needed resources to people and communities impacted and displaced.

Your donation will help send critical funds to support many recovery efforts in sending food, water, medicine, and other essential supplies. As grants are sent, we will post updates here.

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. In its first 5 years of operation, GoFundMe.org raised over $140 million, for distribution to vetted nonprofit organizations serving the same mission, and to verified individuals who are part of the charitable class. GoFundMe.org eliminates the paradox of choice for donors by providing one centralized place to give, knowing that those dollars are efficiently dispersed to the right organizations and people. Donations to this fund are tax-deductible to the extent permissible by law.
