Disaster Relief Fund

The Academy Foundation Disaster Relief Fund was established to support the personal and professional life-rebuilding efforts of Academy members and other nutrition and dietetics professionals and students who have been affected by disasters.

The Foundation extends its heartfelt thoughts and support to those affected by the California wildfires and other recent disasters. Unfortunately, the Foundation’s Disaster Relief funds were depleted after the significant need following hurricanes Helene and Milton in fall 2024. While we hope to be able to offer disaster relief support to Academy members, dietetics students, and other credentialed nutrition practitioners again in the future, our ability to do so is dependent on donations. At this time, our disaster relief application is not available.

If you are interested in donating to support your colleagues who have been affected by disasters, you can do so here.

If you need of disaster relief assistance, please refer to FEMA.gov and DisasterAssistance.gov for information on other disaster relief resources and funding opportunities that may be available to you.
