In partnership with top experts in disaster planning and recovery, including organizations on the ground and leaders in philanthropy, CDP has developed the following in-depth national resources to help us all respond to disasters more strategically and effectively.

 The Disaster Philanthropy Playbook (the Playbook) is a comprehensive resource of promising practices and innovative approaches to guide the philanthropic community in responding to future disasters. The Playbook compiles ideas and approaches from multiple organizations and is an evolving resource designed for relevant updates and ongoing knowledge-building. Learn more about how to get involved.


CDP partners with Candid to annually release the Measuring the State of Disaster Philanthropy report, a comprehensive data collection and analysis on disaster-focused charitable giving. The purpose of the report is to more accurately capture how philanthropy currently responds to disasters and encourage the philanthropic community to support the full arc of disasters, from preparedness and mitigation to recovery and resilience, not just the immediate needs.
