In response to Hurricane Matthew, which made landfall on Tuesday October 4th 2016, Bright Funds has established the Hurricane Matthew Disaster Response and Recovery Fund. This fund is comprised of pre-vetted nonprofits providing disaster response in the region. Through a single tax deductible donation to the Fund, you can support multiple organizations’ initiatives to provide short-term and long-term response and recovery. Our Fund approach is informed by expert and local recommendations from the Center for Disaster Philanthropy. We have initially selected organizations that are on the ground assisting with immediate relief needs, including rescue efforts, medical assistance.

On August 24, 2016 a magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck central Italy, killing at least 241 people and injuring hundreds more. Bright Funds has established the Italy Earthquake Disaster Response and Recovery Fund, comprised of pre-vetted nonprofits providing disaster response in Italy. Through a single tax deductible donation to the Fund, you can help provide short-term and long-term response and recovery to multiple organization initiatives. Our Fund approach is informed by expert and local recommendations, based on up to date information from disaster philanthropy and nongovernmental organization networks. The Fund's strategy is similarly dynamic and responsive: as information on local communities needs becomes available, we will update the organizations in this Fund, directing donations towards specific organizations doing work in the areas most affected. We have initially selected organizations that are on the ground assisting with immediate relief needs, including rescue efforts, medical assistance, and providing access to clean water, food and shelter. Our approach is primarily informed by the Center for Disaster Philanthropy. PHOTO CREDIT: Alessandra Tarantimo/AP

Bring an End to Alzheimer's! More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's and that number is rising. In addition to the emotional toll, this year Alzheimer's will cost the United States $236 billion, and unless we find a cure or way to slow it's progression, that cost is expected to become to over $1 trillion by 2050. Your donation supports the research to crack the code and hopefully save millions in future generations.

Gun violence is plaguing our country and its communities. I’ve picked three 501(c)3s attempting to address this issue. They range from the large D.C.-based Educational Fund to Stop Gun Violence (EFSGV) to the small and super local Oakland-based Youth Alive! Rounding out the group is the LA-based Women Against Gun Violence. Please join me in supporting this hand-picked group of non-profits dedicated to sensible policy reform and responsible gun ownership.

Running a Half-Marathon for Syrians & Moldovans in Need. On July 31st, me, Natalia (my sister), Sean (Hubby) and Mohamed Nur (my 13 year old nephew; he also goes by Mido) will be running the San Francisco Marathon!!! (not to worry, we're running the half-marathon/5k race respectively). Why are we doing such a crazy thing you ask? Well, with good reason...Donation to our run will support two very important and worthy causes - the Syrian Refugee Relief NGO - Karam Foundation- and Hospice Angelus Moldova. A bit about them... 1. Karam Foundation - We are in the midst of the Europe's biggest refugee movement since WWII. The war has resulted in over 4 million Syrians refugees, half of whom are children. Every 50$ raised here will help one Syrian refugee family from Rehanli, Turkey, for one month, with medical assistance, food parcels and education for their children. http://www.karamfoundation.org/sponsor/ 2. Hospice Angelus Moldova - A crucial organization that provides palliative care for terminally ill adults and children, as well as a great deal of education and advocacy in Moldova. In 2015, they performed 8,500+ home palliative care home visits, cared for 53 children, consulted for 4,200+ people, and distributed 100,000+ stoma therapy bags. http://www.hospice.md/about-us/ I hope you will help us to support these two very worthwhile causes. There is not much we can do from afar, but with your help, we might make a bit of a difference in the lives of people in our home countries (or beloved adopted country in Sean's case). Thank you! Marina, Sean, Natalia and Mohamed Nur (her we are celebrating Mido's 11th birthday in Moldova)

A sunPower employee has been working with a group of friends on a really interesting project to help a community of 800+ people in rural Colombia with their access to water. They founded an organization called Acceso Solar. Their project will be installing a solar powered water pump for Las Piedras community so they can have cleaner, cheaper, and safer access to water. After 8 months of hard work, they are ready to launch their crowdfunding campaign and it will be amazing if you can support them now to build momentum and make a tangible difference for the community of Las Piedras.
