MAKE A DONATION

Gulf Aid, a 501(c3) nonprofit corporation, has been established in response to what has been called one of the biggest oil spills in history just 50 miles off of the Louisiana Coast.

Text "GULFAID 10" to 27138 to donate $10 to Gulf Aid. Replace "10" with the number of US dollars (no $ sign) you'd like to pledge, donate as little or as much as you like. Donors will receive an automated call the next day to fulfill their pledge over the phone via credit card.

The fund will ensure all proceeds are distributed to organizations focused on supporting wetlands/coastal environmental issues & the well-being of fishermen, and the regional seafood industry.

Donations may also be sent to the

Thanks for Attending the Gulf Aid Benefit Concert!

July 24th, 2010

The Gulf Aid Benefit concert was a tremendous success! The Gulf Relief Foundation announced that last Sunday’s Gulf Aid Benefit Concert raised $300,088.65. Proceeds from the concert will raise funds to stop the oil from destroying our wetlands and provide financial aid to affected fishermen and their families as oil continues to affect the Gulf of Mexico from the site of the collapsed deepwater horizon. The Foundation’s first distribution will be to the fishing community most impacted by the shutdown of activity in St. Bernard and Plaquemines Parishes. See recent news
