The Broward Cares Disaster Recovery Fund has been activated in response to extensive flooding that stranded drivers and threatened homes and businesses across Broward County this week. Broward Cares is a collaboration of the Community Foundation of Broward, Jewish Federation of Broward County and United Way of Broward County, which team up to raise money and deliver coordinated help where it’s needed most during times of crisis. Already, Broward Cares is reaching out to local nonprofits with a survey to gauge how they have been affected by the deluge that dumped 20 inches of rain on parts of Broward and to identify ways to help the people they serve. In addition, Broward Cares has provided over $250,000 in initial emergency support for nonprofits helping residents in the hardest-hit areas of Hallandale Beach, Hollywood and Davie.
