VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES UPDATE
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES UPDATE: We continue to encourage volunteers not affiliated with an established volunteer organization to go to Volunteer Reception Centers (VRC) located in areas affected by the storms in Alabama. To date, there are over a dozen VRCs across Alabama.
