After GlobalGiving registered with the site, over 600 sellers have listed items for sale on their behalf, and just under $7,000 has been raised for projects.

In the wake of the hurricane and the subsequent flooding, entire cities have been left in ruins. The GlobalGiving Hurricane Rebuilding Fund will support long term projects that focus on rebuilding the affected areas along the Gulf Coast. As immediate relief work shifts into long term rehabilitation, donations will be directed to projects working directly on the ground.

West Africa is entering a yearly cycle of chronic food shortage. This year, due to several natural events, the shortage will turn into crisis if help is not sent. Almost 100 percent of last season's crops were destroyed by swarms of desert locusts. Coupled with scarce rainfall during the majority of planting season, much of West Africa is speeding towards mass starvation. Approximately 3.6 million people in Niger alone currently are at risk of food shortage. Through GlobalGiving, you can help the people of West Africa by contributing to a project that will provide food assistance.
