Michigan Disaster Response Warehouse
Shiawassee County is now home to Michigan Disaster Response Warehouse on north M-52 for the Michigan District Regional North American Lutheran Church Disaster Response Warehouse houses emergency supplies for the last two years, that will be used to enable local congregations and community to bring the love, compassion, and caring effectively and efficiently to their communities when disaster strikes. The NALC Michigan Disaster Response looks to turn chaos into compassion, assisting families to find they’re in times of disaster. Redeemer Lutheran Church, NALC, Owosso, Michigan is serving as host to the 30 foot by 30-foot warehouse built on the church property.
This will just be the one of newest site of what is hoped to be many sites across Michigan and the United States and Canada. NALC Disaster Response is Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. North American Lutheran Church Disaster Response Teams have already responded to disasters all over the United States; Newman, GA tornado disaster; Texas Polar Vortex disaster; California wildfires; Iowa derecho; hurricanes in North Carolina, Florida, and Texas; as well as the bursting of the dams in the Midland/Sanford areas. These are just a few examples of those families and communities that have been served; the need is real; and the closer supplies can be in regions across the country, the faster NALC Disaster Response teams will be able to work with First Responders, community leaders, and community members and volunteers in addressing any emergency that arises.
We are looking for community support in helping in loading and unloading trucks with supplies. Along with delivering supplies to those in need during a disaster. We are looking for volunteers with trucks and trailers to be loaded and deliver to areas of disasters within Michigan. If you or your organization, group would like to be part of this community service. Please note screen is required of all volunteers.
