Question

Volunteers are necessary after any disaster. The bigger the disaster, the more volunteer help is needed. How would you respond if you were asked to leave your home/job/family to volunteer after a disaster? Why types of skills do you have that you feel would be useful?

Answer 1

 

Whenever a disaster strikes, thousands of people start contacting various organizations and posting to online groups in an effort to try to volunteer onsite at the disaster site. Some even jump in their cars and drive to an affected area they have heard about in the news, or start gathering what they think affected people might need.
