Recovery

There are many agencies involved in recovery, known as VOAD.
Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster

A few of them are:

The American Red Cross

The Church of Jesus Christ

The Lutheran Church

The Baptist Church

The Salvation Army

These organizations work very closely together regularly.  Each one of them provide specific services during and after a disaster

Example
Many years ago springtime in our city, the banks of a local creek that ran from the mountains through our city were running over and flooding homes along the way.

The city officials contacted the local church leaders, (it was on a Sunday) asking for volunteers to fill sandbags, deliver them to specific sites and to place them all along the way.  Their request was honored as droves of volunteers showed up to help.

It took hours and pretty soon, trucks showed up with water, drinks and sandwiches for the volunteers.  Porta potties were even delivered.

VOAD in action and they are awesome!
