2026 Fund Here

Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters in the US, causing billions of dollars in damage each year and displacing thousands of families. Too often we see people create fundraisers on the GoFundMe platform asking for help in the wake of destructive floods.

GoFundMe.org has launched this fund to provide direct and immediate support to those impacted by floods this year. Tax deductible donations will go to individuals and families impacted, and to the nonprofit organizations who are responding on the ground. Every dollar will go directly to the communities in need. Your support will help flood survivors begin to rebuild—stronger and together.

Current Need

On December 9, 2025, an atmospheric river began sweeping through Washington state and the greater Pacific Northwest, resulting in widespread flooding and damage. We will be issuing grants to verified folks impacted as donations are raised.

On October 12, 2025, Typhoon Halong swept through Alaska’s Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, resulting in widespread flooding and damage, and over 2,000 people being displaced. New donations raised will be granted to support this community.

We are currently raising money to support victims of the deadly flooding in Gila County, Arizona.

Torrential rain on this August caused historic flash flooding across southeastern Wisconsin, damaging over 1,800 homes and 20+ public schools. Streets, schools, and neighborhoods in Milwaukee County were overwhelmed as rivers reached record levels. Thousands of families are now displaced, schools are facing costly repairs, and FEMA is still assessing the full extent of the damage.

Over the July 4th weekend, catastrophic floods swept across Central and South Texas, devastating homes, displacing families, and leaving entire communities underwater. With little warning, rising waters destroyed businesses, washed away roads, and forced emergency evacuations. Thousands of Texans are now navigating the aftermath—mourning lives lost, cleaning up what’s left, salvaging what they can, and facing an uncertain road to recovery.

In mid‑June, San Antonio was slammed by a flash flood when over 6 inches of rain fell in just a few hours, sweeping away vehicles and killing 13 people. This marked the city’s worst flooding in over a decade, causing extensive infrastructure and road damage.
