Disaster Relief Fund

Disaster Relief FundThe 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. Our ability to support Academy members, dietetics students, and other credentialed nutrition practitioners who have suffered loss in these California wildfires is dependent on donations. If you were not affected by the fires, please consider making a donation today to help our colleagues in need.
