| How
you can help in a disaster |
 |
| When
a disaster strikes, people want to help. |
| But
the wrong kind of help can be as bad as the disaster. Donated items
that are not requested can take up space needed for emergency supplies,
money collected by well meaning folks may not make it to the intended
victims. |
| How
to Help: Raise
Money for Established Relief Agencies |
| Give generously
to those agencies providing assistance to the disaster
victims. Money helps by allowing the agencies to provide the needed
assistance without the difficulties in shipping donated goods. By following
the guidelines for donations and volunteering, you can make a difference. |
| How
to Help: Volunteer
for a relief agency, below is a listing of some of the agencies that
need volunteers to serve disaster victims in you community. |

Red Cross-

American Red Cross, what they do, and why it matters.
