"The first few days after floods are critical for mitigating damage to health and homes from black mold. We have already purchased hundreds of tyvek suits, along with p100 respirators, dehumidifiers, pumps, fans, and other PPE and flood cleanup gear, distributed food and water, set up supply drives and distribution hubs, and started on cleanup efforts. There are long-standing traditions of neighbors helping neighbors via direct personal relationships in many of these towns and cities. It’s inspiring, beautiful, and really moving to see the amazing relief work in the area, both organized and spontaneous – the human version of the rainbows that bring smiles to our eyes after the days of dark skies."
