In the wake Hurricane Ida, ACP is communicating with our members and regional chapter leadership in the affected areas and will provide any support and resources we can during this difficult time.
Ways to help those affected by the hurricane
- The Red Cross is mobilizing hundreds of volunteers to offer aid in the situation on the ground. Donations can be made directly through the web site.
- is providing food boxes and bottled water to residents of South Louisiana. Donations of money is the most efficient way to help, though bottled water and cleaning supplies are also welcome.
- has set up a relief fund for immediate relief efforts and long-term rebuilding and community grants.
- is a volunteer disaster response team that provided relief and rescue services during more than a dozen of Louisiana鈥檚 floods, hurricanes and tropical storms. It is currently assessing needs and accepting donations.
- , originally known as the St. Bernard Project, was formed after Hurricane Katrina and focuses on restoring damaged homes and businesses and supporting recovery policies. Its Hurricane Ida plan needs donations, which will pay for supplies for home rebuilding and protective equipment for team members.
