Harvey Update
- As Harvey continues to deliver destructive rain to Houston and large portions of Texas, NECHAMA is preparing for a full-scale deployment in response.
- We have received numerous request to join our deployment - however, we caution everyone that the event is still ongoing, and we will not be able to engage in operations until it has passed, search and rescue have completed their work, and water has receded enough for us to get gear into place.
As Harvey continues to deliver destructive rain to Houston and large portions of Texas, NECHAMA is preparing for a full-scale deployment in response. We are working with local partners to identify areas of need, and when it is safe and appropriate for NECHAMA to enter the area.
Hurricane Harvey continues to devastate large sections of the Texas coast and inland where rainfall totals have reached 40+ inches of rain. We have received numerous request to join our deployment - however, we caution everyone that the event is still ongoing, and we will not be able to engage in operations until it has passed, search and rescue have completed their work, and water has receded enough for us to get gear into place.
If you are interested in volunteering, sign up here - we will be in touch once we are operational.
In the meantime, you can support NECHAMA's deployment by donating today to ensure we have the funds needed to assist these communities. We need to raise $50,000 for the first of what may be multiple months of deployment.
Thank you for your support!
