Disaster Emergency Committee

The Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) is a UK-based organization that brings together various charities to respond quickly to major humanitarian crises worldwide. When disasters like earthquakes, floods, or conflicts occur, the DEC coordinates fundraising and relief efforts to provide essential aid, such as food, water, and medical supplies, to affected communities. By uniting multiple charities, the DEC ensures a more effective and efficient response, maximizing the impact of donations from the public while simplifying the process of giving during emergencies. Their goal is to alleviate suffering and support recovery in disaster-stricken areas.
