Where to give

Money goes further when it goes directly.

Crises MedMinds is following, and the organisations responding to each. Every link below goes straight to that organisation's own donation page.

MedMinds collects nothing here and takes no share of anything you give. Links last checked 4 September 2026.

  1. Flash floods

    Nepal

    Flash floods tore through northern Nepal on 26 August 2026, destroying homes, roads and bridges and leaving whole communities cut off. The IFRC launched a CHF 25 million emergency appeal the following day.

How this list works

  • Every donation link points at the organisation's own site, opened and checked before it went up.
  • Every crisis description cites where it came from, so you can read further before giving.
  • MedMinds is not a fundraiser. Nothing on this page passes through the group.
  • When an appeal closes it is removed, because a stale appeal sends money to the wrong emergency.
