When disaster strikes, do you wonder how you can help? Join the disaster relief team to be first in line for serving our community in a time of need. Are you good with power tools? Do you enjoy working with a team to complete a project? Would you rather provide a meal for volunteers? All of these roles could be potential volunteer needs the next time a disaster strikes. If you would like to be added to this team, please send your contact information, and area of interest for serving, to Stephanie Knea.
