CREW attends Glades Hurricane Info Day!
C.R.E.W Attends Glades Hurricane Info Day
MOORE HAVEN, FLORIDA - A Hurricane Information Day and Community Picnic was held at the Moore Haven City Park on September 9, sponsored by the Glades County Emergency Management Department. CREW gave out balloons and candy as Project Hope painted faces making it a fun day for the kids. The kids had fun while the adults learned how to better prepare for hurricanes.
CREW, with the help of Palmdale Fire Department, passed out health kits and flood buckets to Ernesto flood victims, which were donated by UMCOR and delivered by a Methodist Church in West Palm. Also delivered was food donated by Catholic Charities.
During this information day, CREW was able to complete four applications for one resident in Muse, one in Labelle and two in Moore Haven. Executive director Trish Adams, LCSW was able to deliver donated clothes to the First United Methodist Church for Moore Haven's thrift store. CREW helped to organized and run the raffle for Glades Emergency Management to help promote awareness and get residents to register and to challenge their knowledge of knowing when to evacuate.
