From the Caribbean to the northern Atlantic coast of the United States, millions of people have evacuated their homes and communities due to Hurricane Sandy. Strong winds and torrential rains have led to flooding and mass destruction.
Through ELCA Disaster Response, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) is responding in areas affected by Hurricane Sandy. In the Caribbean, through our global church partnerships, we are providing basic needs such as food, water and shelter. Throughout the United States we are working hand-in-hand with synods and ministry organizations, who are experts at outreach in their communities. Gifts to ELCA Disaster Response, designated for “Hurricane Sandy” will be used entirely (100 percent) in response to this disaster.
Join the ELCA Disaster Response and help provide the type of immediate and long-lasting support that is already underway in the affected regions.
