Mendenhall Flood Relief Fund open for applications, donations

August 14, 2024 – News

In the wake of unprecedented glacial outburst flooding along the Mendenhall River, the Juneau Community Foundation has reestablished the Mendenhall Flood Relief Fund to provide support to those affected by this disaster. If you have experienced significant loss as a result of the flooding, you are encouraged to apply for relief funds.

Thanks to the generosity of many businesses, the tourism industry, Foundations, and individuals in Juneau and beyond, and with the assistance of the Juneau Economic Development Council’s Alaska Development Corporation, funds will be distributed to those directly affected by the flooding.

JCF is actively fundraising at this time. See below for information about how to donate or visit juneaucf.org/fund/mendenhall-flood-relief-fund.
