With more than 10 years of experience, Emergency Assistance Foundation (EAF) is the oldest and largest standalone charity designed solely to administer global disaster and hardship relief funds, thereby providing grants to individuals in need around the world.

As a third-party administrator, EAF independently administers all fund activities – including accepting donations, objectively reviewing grant applications, and awarding and distributing grants – while also advising our Fund Partners to ensure that each fund is regulatorily compliant and increasingly effective.

As a financial first responder, we must be resourceful and fearless to ensure that financial assistance reaches individuals in need as quickly and efficiently as possible, no matter the unique circumstances. We remain agile and adaptable by harnessing technology, developing scalable platforms and procedures, and constantly evaluating and improving our processes. 

EAF's focused mission allows us to maximize donation dollars sent to applicants in need, shorten the time between application submission and grant award, efficiently process a high volume of domestic and international grants, comply with regulations including IRS, GDPR, CCPA & LGPD, remain aligned with industry best practices and benchmarks, and rapidly respond to evolving and emerging needs.

EAF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that currently administers more than 350 disaster and hardship relief funds, serving over 10 million individuals across six continents. Our 100+ dedicated team members, located across 10 different time zones, are ready to respond through every crisis in more than 20 languages.

We have immense passion for what we do, and we know that many of those we serve are experiencing severe financial hardship. This understanding drives every interaction with our Applicants and Grant Recipients, as well as our commitment to supporting our Fund Partners as they endeavor to help their own.
