Have you ever wondered about what items are used to help people after they’ve survived a natural disaster or weather event? When people lose their homes and belongings due to some severe weather or other disaster, emergency crews must step in to help shelter them until they build a new home.

Mobile Facilities

When a large disaster in one area has displaced many people from their homes, they must stay safe and clean while they’re in a shelter. Buildings that are turned into makeshift shelters following a weather event may not have showering facilities, so people staying there would benefit from using mobile shower trailers.

Food Donations

When a large number of people all of a sudden don’t have a home, they are also without all the items inside their home as well. This includes food, and everyone needs nourishment to survive and stay strong. After a natural disaster, food donations greatly help families who’ve lost everything.

Clothing Donations

When all a person’s belongings are swept away in a storm, fire, or flood, this includes the most basic items like clothing. Clothing donated to disaster victims will help them stay clean and dry until they get back on their feet. When many people lose all their possessions at the same time, donations from the local area are extremely valuable.

Temporary Shelters

After a large weather event has moved through a particular area, makeshift shelters must be created to help any people who lost their homes. Sports stadiums, city recreation centers, and schools are usually used as temporary shelters after many people have been displaced.

These are just a few of the items used to help people after they’ve survived a major natural disaster. There are many ways you can donate to storm victims because any small item means so much.
