Disaster Relief Exchange

The Aidmatrix Foundation's Disaster Relief Matrix is a set of solutions that improves the flow of humanitarian aid in times of disaster response and recovery. It automates much of the cumbersome process which is performed manually. Aidmatrix links nonprofit, government and business sectors to improve disaster relief. This partnering enables agencies to deliver the right aid, to the right person, at the right time - serving more people more efficiently.

Our product donations management solutions and experts are leveraged by organizations ranging from the In-Kind Donations committee of NVOAD, FEMA, State Governments, America's Second Harvest and the US Chamber of Commerce. These systems capture and distribute aid offers and dramatically increasing the chances that offers turn into actual aid deliveries - where and when they are most needed.

Our solutions result in the appropriate donation of millions of dollars of new products, as well as the more efficient and effective processing of an estimated $1.5 billion of aid over the next 5 years. Agencies collaborate at unprecedented levels, improving quality of recovery efforts to millions of people.

Aidmatrix Solves the Problem

When disaster strikes, needs become urgent and magnified. Disaster relief organizations mobilize to save lives and property. Those in the field need the right materials at the right place, at the right time.

Disaster relief groups grapple with the appropriate processing and allocation of product and service offers. Corporations and the general public donate items without understanding or having visibility into what is really needed in emergency response and without knowledge of relief organizations' (and disaster victims') specific needs. All are challenged by the need to appropriately track and capture product donations at the relief warehouses when time is extremely limited and impact must be immediate. Many organizations feel the strain of taking time away from the work at hand to prepare reports and other data to communicate results and needs with headquarters organizations and with government entities.

Relief organizations such as the NVOAD members do collaborate and share resources and offers in response to disaster. Many also track disaster relief inventories and communicate them automatically - with the help of Aidmatrix solutions.

With integrated in-kind donations management and aid warehouse management infrastructure - these groups share resources, have access to turn-key aid warehouse management tools, accept product offers and provide activity and inventory visibility to national office and government agencies at a pace and effectiveness unprecedented in the world of disaster relief .
