Community Foundation for Mississippi: Mississippi Community Response and Recovery Fund

About

As Mississippi communities take steps to protect citizens from the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19), the Community Foundation for Mississippi (CFM) is working with a growing network of partners to ensure the resources for responding to and recovering from crises are available to meet the current and future needs of the state’s residents.

The Mississippi Alliance of Nonprofits and Philanthropy (the Alliance) will be working with the eight Volunteer and Nonprofit Hub directors, state agencies, and local municipal leaders to assess and understand the evolving needs of individuals, families, and communities throughout the state.

The Mississippi Community Relief and Recovery Fund supports the immediate and long-term needs of communities and organizations working on responding to emerging and extraordinary events, including COVID-19. All tax-deductible donations to the fund will support people and communities in Mississippi.

About the Host

Mississippi is one of the most charitable states in the nation. Despite our many needs, we’re full of generous people. Our communities can harness that generosity to imagine a bold, bright future. Helping communities harness that philanthropic potential is what we do. We work alongside our partners to help them make their visions a reality.
