We partner with governments, donors and relief organizations to make this happen. Together with more than 35,000 agencies worldwide, we are working to improve the speed and quality of disaster relief.
We build communities and tools that help each group share information with each other more easily. The Aidmatrix Network® is a disaster-relief supply chain that allows members to view donations and post specific needs, as well as access warehouse and logistics tools. The goal: Reduce the paperwork to focus on the relief work.
Our partners include: Accenture, UPS, FEMA, NATO, International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (NVOAD), numerous governments, and more.
