BRISBANE, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA, July 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- A new $10b fund, known as the Disaster Relief Unification (DRU) Fund, which is driven by blockchain-powered funding platform Project Rescue, is on track to revolutionise the financing of disaster and emergency responses around the globe.

The DRU Fund aims to provide an unprecedented solution to a difficult global challenge, enabling investors to contribute to a meaningful cause while engaging in a high-impact financial ecosystem.

Project Rescue recognises that reported natural disasters have increased five-fold since the 1970s[1], and these disasters today cost the global economy upwards of US$400b annually[2]. On top of that, millions of lives, businesses and communities are impacted every year by the earthquakes, storms, floods, fire and other natural disasters.

The UN notes that for every $1 spent on prevention, the world gains up to $15 in post-disaster recovery benefit[3], so it makes sense to use smart new means like Project Rescue to raise the needed funds.

The $10b DRU Fund is a global, blockchain-powered finance protocol that powers the responses for emergencies around the world. It represents revolutionary change to disaster response globally — reveals a future of saving lives that lies in radical collaboration, decentralised infrastructure, and bold innovation.

By staking $RESCUE, users fund real-world rescue missions and access a limited Guaranteed Growth Vault – and also doubling their token value in six months through a secure, protocol-backed redemption pool.

The Disaster Relief Unification Fund is open to partnerships with governments, NGOs, tech innovators, and blockchain philanthropists who share a vision for a more resilient world.
