With Hurricane Sandy set to make landfall within the next few days, The Salvation Army is working along the East Coast to prepare for the storm.
Already in Virginia and North Carolina, Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) teams are collaborating with emergency management officials to ensure preparedness. Additionally, in Hampton Roads, VA, The Salvation Army is preparing its mobile kitchen (canteen), which is capable of serving 1,000 meals per day, and The Salvation Army Men's Hope Center Shelter in Norfolk, VA, is prepared and planning to open as necessary to host both men and women as the storm approaches.
Anyone who may be impacted by Sandy should keep an eye out for news updates and be prepared with an emergency disaster plan before the storm makes landfall. As always, The Salvation Army will be ready to help anyone in need - check back here for continued updates, as well as our Facebook and Twitter pages.
