Disaster Spiritual Care

What do you see?

It is me sporting an American Red Cross lapel pin saying, I am a proud volunteer with a great organization and I am asking you to join me. The American Red Cross is a wonderful humanitarian organization devoted to helping people in need during times of crisis.

I am part of the Disaster Spiritual Care team. I was deployed to help the people of Pittsburgh in the wake of the shooting. Every time there is a need, from house fire to conflagration, from minor flooding to hurricanes, from natural to man-made disasters, the American Red Cross is there. And we need more help.

As a volunteer, you will be trained to share in the amazing work we do. It is an incredible way to give back to your home community, in my case the Jewish community, or wherever the need might take you. It is a wonderful and rewarding experience. Please join me. Go online at your local American Red Cross chapter to begin the process. JOIN US!

I am pleased to announce that I have joined the Disaster Spiritual Care team of the American Red Cross. I have completed the background checks and continue my training, but I am cleared to go into the field. I look forward to supporting those whose lives have been disrupted by calamity and trauma with this extraordinary group of caregivers.

As we share a season of gratitude for all our blessings, remember to reach out to those who are less fortunate and support the many people on the front lines who are making a difference.
