How to help with Hurricane Dorian relief efforts
Relief organizations are mobilizing to help the Bahamas after Hurricane Dorian devastated the island chain.
Natural disasters often spawn scams. Before you donate to an unfamiliar organization, check the Charity Navigator website to verify the given organization is legitimate.
