Making Impact Personal

Every item goes directly to someone in need, and every prayer is personal. Our goal is to strengthen human connection and rebuild community one interaction at a time.

Recovery takes time.

According to the National Institute of Building Sciences, it can take five to ten years for a community to fully rebuild after major flooding, especially when infrastructure is damaged or funding is delayed.¹

The immediate response (the boots on the ground, the stories shared), is all vital. But as the weeks go on and the spotlight fades, there’s still work to do.

Our hope is to walk alongside families and local organizations in the months and years that follow. With practical help. With personal connection. With the belief that support shouldn't end when the headlines do.

Contribute: Human to Human

When you give through Foundation Registries, you’re not sending supplies into a void. You’re meeting a specific need, for a specific person or group, in a way that’s easy, direct, and transparent.

Every registry is created by the people actually doing the work, including volunteer firefighters, search and rescue teams, pastors, teachers, and families starting over.

You’ll know who it’s for, what they’ve asked for, where it’s going, and how it will help.

Long-term Plans

1. Help Local Teams First

When disaster hits, the first people to act are often volunteers, search and rescue crews, and small community groups. We work directly with them to build real-time registries of the supplies they actually need, then make it simple for you to send those items straight to their doorstep, without delay or waste.

2. Support Families as They Rebuild

After the dust settles, many families are left waiting for insurance, for contractors, for answers. We create personalized registries for those who need long-term support, and we invite you to give to a specific household or share your own story with others who can help.

3. Make Prayer Personal

If you request prayer through Foundation Registries, we will work to match you with a real person who will pray for you by name, not just for the community in general. Volunteers can choose to pray daily, weekly, or as they feel led. It's a quiet kind of help, but one that brings connection, hope, and care into moments that feel heavy.

4. Match Skills with Real Needs

We’re building a growing list of people who want to help with their hands, for needs that arise once urgent volunteering needs dissipate. If you have skills to offer, whether that’s chainsaw work, animal care, computer know-how, or simply being a listening ear, we’ll keep you in mind and match you with opportunities as they arise.

5. Build a Transparent Giving Fund

Donations will go directly to filling unmet needs in active registries and future impact projects. We’re applying for 501(c)(3) status now and will notify our supporters once it’s approved. You’ll always know where your money goes, and who it helps.

6. Keep Telling the Story

Through our emails, site, and social media, we’ll share updates straight from the people you’ve supported. You’ll hear about homes repaired, prayers answered, and lives pieced back together through the voices of those who lived it. If you’d like to share your story, please contact us below and we will reach out to you over the phone, in person, or via email, whichever you prefer.

According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it.
