Emergency Assistance Foundation

Every 12 minutes, Emergency Assistance Foundation helps a person or family in need. Emergency Assistance Foundation (EAF) is a 501(c)(3) public non-profit that provides financial assistance to eligible individuals in the immediate aftermath of unforeseen disasters and personal hardships occurring around the world. EAF accomplishes this through the administration of 350+ employee relief funds – each sponsored by a company to support its team members in need – as well as through its People First Fund, which often activates when large-scale disasters strike to help as many of those impacted as possible. For all its relief funds, EAF objectively manages all activities – including accepting donations, objectively reviewing grant applications, and awarding and distributing grants – while also maintaining legal and regulatory compliance. As a financial first responder, EAF has its pulse on disaster events occurring around the world in real time and acts resourcefully to ensure that financial assistance reaches individuals in need as quickly and efficiently as possible, no matter the unique circumstances. Since its inception, EAF has helped more than 411,000 individuals and families with assistance totaling over $329 million.
