The Disaster Emergency Committee

The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) is an organization in the UK that brings together various charities to respond to major international crises, such as natural disasters or humanitarian emergencies. When a significant disaster occurs, the DEC coordinates fundraising efforts, ensuring that donations are efficiently directed to aid agencies delivering support on the ground. This collaboration helps maximize the impact of donations and provides timely assistance to affected communities, such as food, shelter, and medical care. The DEC raises public awareness and encourages solidarity among charitable organizations to address global challenges effectively.
