Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and EO Radio Show episode 129 is a refresh of episode 10, first published on August 8th, 2022. It provides a checklist of considerations when organizing a new charity to provide relief in the aftermath of a disaster. The recent flood events in Texas and New Mexico remind us of the need to support those affected by overwhelming disasters. We know that once the headlines fade and the cleanup begins, the immense work of recovery gets underway, and that recovery effort requires financial support. Long-term recovery efforts, long-term fundraising, and a long-term commitment to the victims are sometimes best provided by a new organization formed just for that purpose. The focus of this episode is on the steps the new charitable organization must take to provide effective long-term disaster relief.
