Support the HurricaneRiskCalculator®️

When a hurricane threatens, what do people really need to know? They need to know things like:

  • Will it be safe to stay in my home?
  • How high will the winds be at my house?
  • When will the winds arrive?

The HurricaneRiskCalculator® is the first address-based hurricane wind hazard web app. It goes beyond “the Cone” – providing vital information about hurricane wind impacts on your home. This personalized approach allows homeowners to make informed decisions about hurricane preparations. Your donation will allow our scientists to continue developing this important tool and make it available for FREE to families around the world.

Every Donation Makes a Big Impact!

Our goal is to make the HurricaneRiskCalculator® available to as many people around the world as possible and keep it FREE for all users. But we can only do it with your support. Our goal is to raise $7,500 to help cover the costs for the coming year associated with making this app available to 10,000 users. As we get more users, the cost per user will go down. A donation of any amount, even just $1, will help us bring this innovative safety capability to fruition.

If you prefer to donate by check please make checks out to Friends of the National Center and write “HurricaneRiskCalculator” in the comment/memo field.
