Note: Disaster relief is a cause that you can support with RaiseUp, but since we are still welcoming nonprofit organizations, we do not yet have a participating nonprofit that is supporting Hurricane Harvey. (If you are a nonprofit organization that supports disaster relief and would like to utilize the RaiseUp program to raise funds for Hurricane Victims, you can learn about the program and reach out at www.RaiseUp.org.
