Where to Donate to Help the Rebuilding

10/10/2017

 
The place we all love to visit, live and surf just had the unthinkable happen.  On Thursday Oct.5 Tropical Storm Nate unleashed on the Tola area of Nicaragua.  Flooding many areas around Tola and Las Salinas. The situation on the beach in Guasacate was the worst scenario possible.  The combination of high tides, high surf and heavy onshore winds. This resulted of the water runoff filling the salt flats and estuary so fast it could not escape out the river mouths fast enough.  Causing the estuary to break its banks in low areas and completely destroying some business and houses along the beach and flooding most every other building.  5 days since the storm hit and several areas including Guasacate still have no power.

Everyone is safe and the rebuilding and clean up processes have begun.  Now is the time to give and they need your financial help.  There have been several GoFundMe pages set up by people on the ground in Guasacate and abroad.  We have created this list of funding options if you would like to help. 

We feel that it is your choice on which fund you would like to support, so we created this list for you to look through and research what fund you want to support.
