Swiss Solidarity has raised over CHF2.2 million ($2.4 million) following the earthquake that struck Morocco on September 9.
The organisation will be able to finance "vital aid" deployed by its Swiss NGO partners in the kingdom.
The most urgent needs currently include the distribution of water, food, blankets and clothing, as well as medical care and psychosocial support, Swiss Solidarity said in a press release on Tuesday.
Swiss Solidarity is continuing its solidarity campaign for the victims of the earthquake. Given the extent of the damage, and with winter just around the corner, needs remain high, it explains. It is essential to build emergency shelters in mountain villages to protect people from the cold that will soon be arriving in the Atlas region.
The foundation is more pessimistic about the Derna region in eastern Libya, hit by storm Daniel on September 10. It regrets that it does not have enough partners in Libya to launch a national solidarity campaign.
Swiss Solidarity will nevertheless be able to activate its emergency fund to finance one-off humanitarian projects if partner NGOs so request.
