Our Impact
$10 million worth of supplies distributed
From January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2021, Reach Out America distributed over ten million dollars of disaster and community support supplies nationally and internationally. (This valuation is determined directly by our donor partners and we report their valuation.) Where did we do this? Take a look at the chart below. The chart below reflects the significant projects we have been involved in, such as several hurricanes, the freeze in the Houston area, the distribution of seeds for elementary school educational projects, glasses for the Central America region, fires in California, floods in Michigan, tornados in Georgia and Tennessee, and miscellaneous other events.
