The City of Irvine believes we can all make a difference, one person at a time, which is why we are committed to informing residents about the need and opportunity to help victims of natural and other disasters.  

Most recently a series of tornados were reported in Oklahoma, Kansas, Illinois and Iowa. Hardest hit was Oklahoma, where a massive tornado touched down near Oklahoma City on May 20, leveling the area to little more than debris, killing 20 and injuring hundreds more. If you are looking for a way to help, the The American Red Cross is accepting donations as it continues relief work in the area.

Your generosity, multiplied by millions, will go a long way in helping these long-term and ongoing recovery efforts. Below is a list of organizations that have been supporting disaster relief efforts.
