Business Roundtable Partnership for Disaster Response

Business Roundtable first activated the Partnership for Disaster Response immediately following Hurricane Katrina. The Partnership is an effort to expand corporate commitment, beyond financial contributions, to respond to natural disasters. The Partnership’s goal is to enhance the efficiency of the private sector’s disaster response by facilitating public-private collaborations to prepare for the health, social and economic burdens that natural disasters can create.
