Community Emergency Relief Fund (CERF)
It is impossible to know when an emergency will strike in our community, so it is essential we be prepared with funds and resources to support the immediate needs of those most impacted. Thanks to the generous financial contributions of donors, we established a Community Emergency Relief Fund (CERF), which can be quickly accessed and distributed to provide direct assistance to our community, nonprofit partners, and first responders during catastrophic events affecting Douglas County.
DCCF is positioned to be the point resource for financial, emotional and operational reinforcements during an emergency situation, and the Foundation is agile in vetting, managing and tracking fund recipients to assure maximum efficacy.
When you contribute to the CERF, you can be assured that your gift will help our community, should the need arise. 100% of all designated donations are reserved for use in a community emergency in Douglas County.
