The disaster relief problem

After a disaster, families need fast, flexible funding. Generic crowdfunding pages stall after the first week.

When a natural disaster strikes, communities need immediate support for rebuilds, temporary housing, and supplies. Open-ended donation pages often spike once, then go quiet.

MonthFund gives organizers a structured calendar with a daily claim mechanic. Supporters pick a day and give that amount. The calendar keeps momentum visible for a full month.

The model

31 days. One day at a time.

01

Launch in minutes

An organizer creates a dedicated campaign for the rebuild or relief fund and shares the calendar link.

02

Community claims days

Friends, neighbors, and extended networks claim days and give the matching amount. Donors can cover the infrastructure fee at checkout.

03

Track progress publicly

The calendar shows days filling in real time. Visible progress keeps the community engaged through the full month.

The math

Structured support when it matters most.

One organizer, one month$496

A single fully claimed 31-day calendar.

Five coordinators$2,480

Five people each running a calendar for the same rebuild fund.

Extended network$7,440+

Fifteen calendars across organizers, neighbors, and mutual aid volunteers.

MonthFund provides structure. Outcomes depend on participation. The model makes them calculable, not guaranteed.
