Hurricane Gustav Service Delivery Kitchen Feeding - Red Cross
Loading...
Uploaded by AmRedCross on Sep 6, 2008
American Red Cross "hot meals, cold drinks come and get em!" called Chris Newes from the driver's seat of the American Red Cross Emergency Response Vehicle (ERV). After Hurricane Gustav plowed into the Gulf Coast, people began to make their way back home this week, returning in many cases to homes without power. Near New Orleans, in Gretna, Louisiana, the Red Cross was there to make sure everyone who needed a hot meal got one. With a goal of serving 20,000 meals a day, Red Cross volunteers and employees set up mobile kitchens, prepared hot meals and loaded the food into the ERV. Our hope is to find some folks who have unmet needs related to Hurricane Gustav. There's no more direct service you can provide than handing them a hot meal that they wouldn't have otherwise, said Newes, a Red Cross employee who was driving the ERV through neighborhoods to deliver meals.
