About this event
When disaster strikes, the American Red Cross is already on the move! From a single-family fire to a large-scale hurricane, this humanitarian organization is often among the first to arrive — bringing help, hope, and relief to those in crisis.
Have you ever wondered how they mobilize so quickly and effectively? Join us for a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the Red Cross disaster response process. Morgan Sommers, Community Disaster Program Manager for the American Red Cross, will walk us through what happens step by step — from the moment a call comes in, to deploying volunteers, to providing shelter, meals, and emotional support to those affected.
Discover the coordination, training, and teamwork that make the Red Cross a trusted force in times of emergency.
