Global Impact’s Charity Alliance partners are making a real difference in the midst of hard times.
With more than 110 million confirmed cases and over 2 million deaths, communities everywhere have felt the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic – but some have been impacted more than others. Around the world, we are witnessing economic downturn, a worsening hunger crisis, instability in health care systems, a rise in child abuse and more. Our Charity Alliance partners are responding in the face of these global threats.
Global Impact’s COVID-19 Relief Fund has provided over $1 million in relief funding for COVID-19, supporting both nonprofits that are providing critical relief, and those that are continuing other vital services during this pandemic.
Give to the COVID-19 Relief Fund today and help advance these relief and recovery efforts for those impacted.

Global Impact's Operational Response
For the health of our employees and as part of our efforts to minimize community spread, Global Impact has limited business travel and our offices closed beginning March 13. All staff will telework until further notice. Fortunately, we are well positioned to continue our services virtually and do not expect any major disruptions to our work. Other implications are as follows:
- While we enjoy hosting our partners and opening our office space for use, we will temporarily refrain from this practice.
- Staff will communicate with their respective partner contacts to transfer in-person meetings to a virtual forum and we encourage our partners to do the same.
- Contingencies are in place to send and receive business mail and packages.
Due to the fluctuating nature of this situation, we will continue to monitor and adjust operational procedures as needed.
