EIN: 46-3359567 · Staten Island, NY
Founded in November 2012, the Staten Island Interfaith & Community Long Term Recovery Organization (SILTRO) was established under FEMA's guidance in response to the devastation caused by Superstorm Sandy. This grassroots organization mobilizes vital information and resources to address the unmet needs of local communities during disasters, particularly those disproportionately affected by economic, racial-ethnic, or ability-based disparities.
Since its inception, SILTRO has made significant strides in disaster recovery. As of June 2020, the organization distributed $220,000 in emergency cash grants to Staten Island households impacted by COVID-19. Post-Sandy efforts include providing over $1.5 million in aid, donating more than $1 million in construction materials, and successfully rebuilding over 200 homes. Additionally, SILTRO has facilitated transitional and permanent housing for over 100 families and provided disaster case management for more than 500 families over five years.
Your contributions are crucial for the recovery of disaster-impacted communities. SILTRO's collaborative approach ensures that nonprofits, houses of worship, and government officials work together effectively, serving the most vulnerable populations. Without the support of generous donors, this essential work would not be possible.
Join the effort to support Staten Island's recovery by donating cryptocurrency or cash. Your generosity can help rebuild lives and strengthen community resilience.
