The Sonder Project is a global non-profit charity that focuses on strengthening communities through food security, clean water, housing and education.

After Hurricane Michael, The Sonder Project has also had an enormous local impact on the affected areas by raising money, clearing debris, and working with volunteers, local businesses and contractors to help households recover. The money raised will directly benefit The Sonder Project’s efforts in the Panhandle and beyond.
