Hello Chere & FML's,
Since Chere is with the Intl Relief-Aid/Response Orginazation EARS, I shall
address these remarks to her. However, I would like all FML's to please
assist where possible.
I have had members of the State (Maine) Grange continue to assist in
obtaining relief supplies for animals (all). They are storing these items
in barns/sheds/basements/etc. This is extremely helpful in a Disaster to
have supplies ready & available to move quickly.
We still need to co-ordinate Temp. Storage sites & relay points throughout
the US/Canada and wherever else it may be needed in the World.
I realize that the "BIG" trucks can not enter into a disaster zone
immediately. But they can move the supplies from throught the US/CANADA to
a "designated site" close to the disaster area. From this "site" smaller
vehicles could move the Relief Supplies to within range of the disaster area
as allowed by "authorities".
I realize that this will be a big effort on everyone's part, but I believe
we can do it. We will need help/assistance from many FML's.
I am willing to try to help in co-ordinating where and how I can.
Chere if you would like to do this type of response co-ordination please let
me know. If there is no response to this request, I'll have the members of
the Grange donate the "collected" supplies to a local animal rescue/shelter.
Awaiting your response,
DANNY D
