Emergency Disaster Services - Emergency Disaster Team Member
From its inception, The Salvation Army has relied heavily on volunteers who support its programs. Often referred to as “the army behind The Army," volunteers play a crucial role in response efforts during a disaster by positively impacting the lives of those involved.
In times of community crisis, people frequently want to “give back” and look for ways to share their time and talents with others. Being a part of The Salvation Army’s Emergency Disaster Relief work is an opportunity to provide basic human needs to disaster survivors and first responders in the aftermath of devastating events.
