What counties and towns will it be used in?
--While the Red Crosse is not able to designate your gift to a specific location (like La Farge or Gays Mills), your gift will help provide Red Cross Services to people in Wisconsin counties that were impacted by the recent flooding and severe weather.
--Twenty-nine counties throughout Wisconsin are included in this response including Vernon, Juneau, La Crosse, Crawford, Richland and Grant Counties.
What has the local Red Cross already done?
--It was able to respond immediately because of the dedicated volunteers which make Red Cross services possible. The Scenic Bluffs Chapter has already provided sheltering support to Caledonia and Brownsville in Minnesota and in La Farge, Ontario, Viroqua and Viola in Wisconsin.
--In addition to sheltering we have provided clean up kits, water and meals throughout the local areas affected.
