Morocco Earthquake Relief

Partnering with families to rebuild stronger communities after the 2023 Al Haouz earthquake.

Our Community Impact

In the days following the devastating earthquake that shook Morocco's Al Haouz province, NOVAStrong mobilized quickly to support families who lost homes, livelihoods, and a sense of security. Our team coordinated with local partners to channel aid directly where it was needed most.

Together with our supporters, we raised over $3,000 in relief funding. A single GoFundMe campaign generated $1,500+, providing critical resources for food, medical care, and temporary shelter while long-term rebuilding plans took shape.

Every dollar helped a family navigate the hardest weeks after the quake. We remain committed to transparency, responsiveness, and amplifying the voices of those working on the ground in Morocco.

Across all of our relief efforts, NOVAStrong supporters have now contributed more than $20,000 to families locally and overseas, reinforcing our promise to stand with communities before, during, and after crisis.

How We Delivered Support

  • Coordinated with relatives in Marrakesh and local volunteers to identify urgent family needs.
  • Funded emergency supplies such as blankets, clothing, and hygiene kits for displaced families.
  • Invested in structural repairs and temporary housing so families had safe places to stay.
  • Shared regular updates with donors to highlight the impact of every contribution.

What Comes Next

Recovery is a marathon, not a sprint. NOVAStrong is continuing to:

  • Partner with diaspora networks supporting long-term reconstruction in the affected villages.
  • Explore sustainable housing options that can withstand future seismic activity.
  • Advocate for youth-led initiatives that keep global relief efforts in the conversation here in Northern Virginia.

We will keep sharing ways to help as rebuilding continues. Thank you for showing up when it mattered most.
