Emergency Response FAQ
Where does FH respond to emergencies?
A: Our emergency responses are most often focused in the countries where we have local staff who are already serving there. This is because that makes us best equipped to respond immediately to disasters in those places. Depending on the size and extent of the disaster, we additionally respond to emergencies that are not in the countries where we are currently active.
Is emergency response ongoing, or does FH respond for a certain length of time?
A: Both! We are committed to responding to emergencies and meeting urgent needs. To do this, ongoing support of our crisis readiness is essential. This ensures that FH will be able to respond to disasters when they happen. We also have specific emergency projects that will reach an end date once the disaster relief work is completed.
