 It's our annual fundraiser to help us with disaster relief here locally. The funds will provide direct assistance to those who are involved in disasters instances like a single family house fire or a flood. We need to have donations from the public and this is our way of moving that process along. |
| [HOPE Founder and CEO, John Bryant, said,] Hurricane Katrina communicated in the strongest terms possible, the need for individuals to prepare for the financial and economic disaster that follows a physical disaster in America. Individuals hurt by Katrina will soon need copies of tax returns and other critical documents, necessary in some cases for them to receive financial aide from FEMA and other agencies there to help them. ... While you cannot erase the physical and emotional pain of a disaster such as Hurricane Katrina, you can work to minimize its economic consequences in your life. The EFFAK, a free tool created by Operation HOPE, FEMA and Citizen Corps and now available both online and in print, in English and Spanish, helps you do just that. |
| Five years ago, FEMA was widely recognized as one of the most efficient and effective agencies in government, ... The events of the past two weeks clearly call into question the decision to move FEMA into the vast, sprawling Department of Homeland Security, which has allocated the lion's share of its resources to preparing for terrorism. Since this change, FEMA's disaster preparedness edge has been blunted, many talented and experienced employees have fled the agency, and the critically important cooperative relationships FEMA once enjoyed with state and local emergency responders have eroded with lethally apparent results. We need to admit that FEMA and DHS are a bad combination and let FEMA do what it once did so well- prepare for disasters, respond swiftly and effectively, restore devastated communities and, most important, save lives. |
| Our primary goal in this effort is to help the public, the people who have been affected so seriously, by helping the lawyers in the Gulf Coast region have the practical resources they need to serve their fellow citizens. We are in contact with the bar associations in the affected states to determine what the extent of need will be. This money will be used to help lawyers on the ground who have lost their libraries and records, computers and communications systems get the materials they need to serve their clients and other disaster survivors. It is our hope that the assistance fund will provide a ready vehicle for voluntary contributions by lawyers across Virginia to help the Gulf Coast public via the continuing services of our lawyer colleagues who are on the scene there. Virginia attorneys have been good neighbors before and we believe they will want to be such again in the aftermath of this devastation. |
| Funds . . . were not shared to build capabilities throughout a larger community. Now, it's forcing communities to apply together. We recognized any attack or natural disaster would tax the resources of surrounding communities. |
| Those are not FEMA roles. FEMA doesn't evacuate communities. FEMA does not do law enforcement. FEMA does not do communications. |
| I am concerned that hurricane victims are not receiving the assistance they need and money is being wasted as these professionals remain idle, ... Congress acted quickly to make sure that FEMA had the funds necessary for the rescue and recovery effort. I hope proper precautions are being taken to ensure that relief funds are spent in the most efficient manner possible. |
| The disaster response -- both public and private -- was a disaster for Latinos and other communities of color. |
| FEMA strongly recommends that communities build higher and stronger to reduce vulnerability from flooding during future hurricanes. Commodore 64 är en klassisk dator för demoscenen. FEMA provides this kind of advisory information to local governments -- but ultimately it is state and local officials, working with their citizens, who make final decisions on land use and other building code requirements. |
| Any time there is a natural disaster, FEMA is trotted out as an example of how well government programs work. In reality, by using taxpayer dollars to provide disaster relief and subsidized insurance, FEMA itself encourages Americans to build in disaster-prone areas and makes the rest of us pick up the tab for those risky decisions. Americans should not be forced to pay the cost of rebuilding oceanfront summer homes. |
