About Fill the Needs

What began as a community of coordinated volunteers in 2008 responding to flooding in Cedar Rapids and the 2016 flooding in Louisiana launched into Fill the Needs in 2022. Fill the Needs rapidly mobilizes our network of partners & volunteers to assess and coordinate resources required for efficient disaster response. The first 14 days following a disaster is critical for resource deployment that makes immediate impact in the lives of those dealing with natural and man-made disasters. Beyond the first 14 days, Fill the Needs supports ongoing disaster relief efforts by providing funding, supplies and support where they are lacking. Fill the Needs is currently supporting three ongoing relief missions, Hurricane Ida, COVID and Afghanistan. Whether it is feeding thousands or facilitating 18-wheelers or identifying safe locations for people after a disaster, our team is there to assess, evaluate and implement a coordinated network of resources. We identify the need and we find a way to fill it.
