  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 6 people are interested

WE'RE PLANNING A VOLUNTEER RECEIVING CENTER AND WE NEED HELP! You know the saying, it's not a matter IF a disaster will strike our area, it's WHEN.

We need you to join our trained volunteer corps. We need trained volunteers ready to assist in the event of a disaster.

Some of the opportunities are:

  • work with emergency professionals
  • greet volunteers as they show up to help
  • answer a telephone, or
  • help manage the flow at the reception center

This opportunity is open to anyone aged 18 years or older, making it a great family opportunity. We will be working with most, if not all, of the emergency responder agencies. There are many other opportunities to become involved!

Call Melody if you are interested in learning more and receiving training for this important work.
