Half of every Give Nebraska donation goes into our Infusion Fund, which provides financial aid to survivors to help with housing stability, transportation, legal fees, utilities, groceries, or childcare. During our last funding cycle, we provided direct aid to 79 survivors in 10 communities across the state. With your support, we can help even more survivors regain stability and rebuild their lives.
