1. Triple your impact in Hawaii and beyond

Last week, Americares deployed an Emergency Response team to Hawaii in the wake of the deadliest wildfires in modern U.S. history. The team is continuing to meet with local partners to assess immediate health needs and offer support for the long road ahead. 

Because of your support, we're prepared to respond to natural disasters and other health crises around the world. And for a limited time, your gift will be TRIPLE matched.

So please, rush a gift now to help meet our $500,000 goal before midnight on Aug. 31. Every dollar makes all the difference in these difficult times of wildfires and other extreme weather disasters.

2. See your impact in Türkiye six months on

It's been six months since devastating earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria, and millions are still trying to piece their lives back together. The earthquakes killed more than 60,000 people, injured tens of thousands more and forced families from their damaged homes.

The outpouring of support shown by humanitarians like you meant we could send urgent aid and provide long term support. As just one example, we were able to provide a specialized, motorized bed for Batwan, whose family's home was destroyed in the earthquakes. 

3. 44 years dedicated to health for all

This year, Americares is celebrating 44 years of saving lives and improving health for millions of people – from survivors of the wildfires in Hawaii to refugees fleeing humanitarian crises in their home countries – because we believe health is a human right.
