The disaster response fund (drf) of the otsego community foundation (ocf) was established to provide a centralized opportunity for donors to invest in disaster relief efforts and a support mechanism for nonprofit organizations responding to crisis. Our goal is to work collaboratively with the nonprofit, government, philanthropic and private sectors to accelerate recovery for a thriving, resilient, and even stronger gaylord. The drf awards grants to organizations that are addressing immediate relief, short-term recovery, and long-term rebuilding. Our local nonprofits continue to demonstrate incredible resilience, ingenuity, and tenacity as they increase and adapt their programs to meet the needs heightened by the disasters.
