Relief funds donated through this site will be used exclusively for addressing
the sexual assault related effects of Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana. Funds
will be used to aid sexual assault victims who were assaulted during the
hurricane's aftermath to make sure they get the services they need; to ensure
that sexual assault survivors whose base of support, their community-based
rape crisis center, was lost to them are able to access services elsewhere;
to support the rape crisis centers impacted by the Greater New Orleans evacuation
in making sure they have sufficient staff and volunteers to handle the increased
demand for services; and to help displaced sexual assault center staff with
their immediate housing and job search needs.

The NNEDV Fund is setting aside a portion of its Direct Assistance Fund to
assist abuse victims in Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi who were affected
by Hurricane Katrina.
In partnership with the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation and Altria Group,
Inc., NNEDV Fund’s Direct Assistance Fund will provide emergency grant
assistance to domestic violence programs to pay for services and supplies
needed to serve victims. In addition, the Direct Assistance Fund will provide
emergency grants up to $2,000 to victims of domestic violence directly impacted
by the hurricane. The Direct Assistance Fund application process usually
takes one week; however, due to the extreme nature of this disaster, NNEDV
Fund is expediting the application process. To donate, please send a check
payable to: Direct Assistance Fund, The National Network to End Domestic
Violence Fund, 660 Pennsylvania Ave., SE, Suite 303, Washington, DC 20003.
Donors should indicate on the check that the contribution is Hurricane Katrina
Relief.
