FanDuel makes $175,000 donation to hurricane relief efforts in Georgia

Employees in the operator’s Atlanta office will also collect essential relief supplies for those affected by the storm and first responders.

• The donation will be spread across four organizations currently supporting hurricane recovery efforts
• It will go towards each organizations’ community-driven recovery efforts in areas of shelter, medical supplies and food across the region

FanDuel has made a $175,000 donation in an effort to support Hurricane Helene recovery in the state of Georgia, where FanDuel also has a corporate office, located in Atlanta. The donation will be spread across four Georgia organizations including Greater Valdosta United and United Way of Toombs, Montgomery and Wheeler Counties, Second Harvest Foodbank of South Georgia and Golden Harvest Food Bank.

“FanDuel is a proud employer in Georgia and is devastated to see the damage across communities many of our team members call home,” FanDuel VP of Responsible Gaming and Community Impact Alison Kutler said. 

“We are committed to supporting recovery efforts and to aiding the efforts of heroic first responders, and we look forward to continuing to uplift the community as we rebuild.”

The donation will support each organizations’ community-driven recovery efforts in areas of shelter, medical supplies and food across the region as it works to recover from the catastrophic damage of Hurricane Helene.

Good to know: On October 1, FanDuel announced that the operator made a fourth $1m donation in support of the United Negro College Fund

“On behalf of the families and communities impacted by Hurricane Helene, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to FanDuel for their incredible generosity,” Georgia Senator Blake Tillery said. 

“This is the first major contribution toward our recovery efforts, and through our #ToombsStrong partnership with the United Way of Toombs, Montgomery and Wheeler Counties, these funds will go directly to helping families rebuild their lives. Your support will make a lasting difference in our community’s recovery and resilience.”

FanDuel employees in its Atlanta office will also collect essential relief supplies for those affected by the storm and first responders, including non-perishable food, water, clothing, hygiene products, baby supplies and first-aid materials. 

The company is also matching individual employee donations.
