American Red Cross Responds to Wisconsin Floods July-26-2010

Flood, fire and wind created a whirlwind disaster response activity for multiple American Red Cross Chapters across the state. Throughout Wisconsin, trained volunteers have traveled across the state to open shelters, distribute clean-up kits, conduct disaster assessments and support the emergency needs of those affected by the storms. Red Cross volunteers have also supported emergency crews with water, Gatorade, snacks and shelter.

All disaster assistance is free. For instance, clean-up kits are being distributed at Red Cross offices as well as by volunteers going door-to-door. Each kit includes a variety of clean-up items such as squeegee, mop, bleach, gloves, and more.

Please consider making a donation to our National Disaster Relief Fund to help the people affected across the state of Wisconsin. Three ways to donate include:
