DISASTER RELIEF BUCKET PROGRAM
DID YOU KNOW…?
1-in-10 American households is affected by a natural disaster each year.
Every year, it seems like those numbers are on the rise. From tornadoes to seasonal flooding to hurricanes that seem to come one after another, the need is great.
These types of losses are often life-changing for the communities involved. Each one typically requires some level of assistance with basic needs such as search-and-rescue, debris clearing, food security, and post-disaster communications.
To assist communities in the immediate wake of a disaster, we are implementing a Disaster Relief Bucket program. Anemoi’s Disaster Relief Buckets are five-gallon containers filled with essential home recovery supplies that are needed after a disaster strikes, many of which may not be readily available due to infrastructure breakdown.
Although a seemingly simple gesture, the impact and reach stands to be large. Our mission is to distribute these buckets to some of the worst-affected victims, in order to aid in their start to recovery.
Our goal is to assemble 100 buckets with supplies, along with a note of encouragement inside each bucket, and keep them at the ready for rapid distribution. Additionally, we plan to have supplies on hand to transport to disaster areas to refill buckets that have been distributed and/or create new disaster buckets on site.
As disasters are not all the same, our disaster buckets will come in two versions: one for flooding emergencies and one for debris clean-up. We also plan to distribute backpacks with personal hygiene items. Click here for details on included items.
We cannot do this alone
and need your help and support.
Each bucket and backpack costs approximately $75.00 to create.
