Community Disaster Relief

The loss and damage caused by the many fires burning simultaneously in Los Angeles County continue to grow.

For our Santa Barbara County neighbors interested in supporting relief efforts, we will continue to add resources about reputable organizations from both Santa Barbara County and Los Angeles County delivering vital aid.

 


 

Community Disaster Relief Fund

 

The Community Disaster Relief Fund was first activated following the 2018 Debris Flow. It was relaunched in March 2020 to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With both natural and human-caused disasters occurring more frequently and with greater severity, the need for financial resources to support nonprofit and government response and recovery efforts is growing rapidly. The Community Disaster Relief Fund at the Santa Barbara Foundation is built to address this need and is activated in the aftermath of an emergency to support nonprofit organizations in short-term and long-term recovery. SBF collaborates with the Santa Barbara County Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (SBC VOAD) to support disaster response efforts with the nonprofit community.
