SOS

Grants and foundations

Funding coordination multiplies the work of every responder already on the ground.

After-action reports from major disasters keep naming the same failures: no shared picture, lost data, duplicated effort, and survivors who never get matched to help.

SOS is the coordination layer for community response. We partner with foundations whose missions include disaster recovery, resilience, and public interest technology.

Areas we partner on

  • Coordination infrastructure

    Core support for the shared platform that lets community groups, shelters, and agencies see requests and resources in one place.

  • Climate resilience and preparedness

    Pilot SOS with a region's voluntary organizations before disaster season, so coordination is in place before it's needed.

  • Public interest technology

    Support open, human-approved tools that bring public feeds like road closures and shelter status to local responders.

  • Equitable recovery

    Help survivors who are hardest to reach get matched to help, and help local groups show that the help actually arrived.
