Network for Good, Corporate Partners Aid Victims of Oklahoma Tornadoes

[Jessi Copeland]

In the wake of the severe storms and tornadoes devastating Moore, Oklahoma and the Midwest, Network for Good launches giving responses with corporate partners such as AOL, Capital One, and Yahoo!.

In under 24 hours, Network for Good is already seeing an immediate uptick in Oklahoma disaster relief donations, especially via employee giving campaigns and media sites. Network for Good works with companies to prepare a disaster giving plan and host secure, branded giving pages, featuring a curated list of relief organizations.

You can see a AOL's sample branded giving page here. 

In the days following a disaster, most relief giving volume trends in lockstep with the media coverage of the response effort. This is why it is vital to activate a corporate giving response while the media attention is high--to capture customers’ and employees’ desire to help in the moment they are compelled to give.

Network for Good can activate a branded giving page within hours that is optimized for desktop, tablet, and mobile donations. Best practices for relief giving are embedded into these solutions, including ways to spread a corporate call to action via social networks. Network for Good can also create a text-to-give campaign for your company.

Here's how your company can join other brands inspiring disaster relief donations with customers and employees:

• WHAT: Secure, branded landing page for collecting donations for charities speeding relief to disaster victims. We can also help with your disaster relief giving plan.
• WHY: In a disaster, your customers and employees want a way to join the immediate response effort.
• HOW: Email Network for Good at partnerships(at)networkforgood(dot)org today.
