American Red Cross Emergency Services
The Southeastern Chapter of the American Red Cross plays a key role during crisis situations, providing a network of emergency response services. Everyday your local Red Cross responds to an average of five home fires and other disasters a day in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties, providing needed services to distressed families.
With the help of people, like you who volunteer, and contribute financially, we provide immediate emergency relief following disasters in the form of:
- Emergency food, clothing, temporary shelter and personal care items to disaster victims as needed.
- Facilitate inquiries from concerned family members outside the disaster area
- Referrals to out resources for long-term needs
Emergency Services Outside of Michigan
Trained volunteers and paid staff from the Southeastern Michigan Chapter are regularly called upon to provide emergency relief throughout the country. In 2005, 141 local Red Cross disaster workers delivered relief services in Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida following hurricanes, Katrina, Rita and Wilma.
