You've got everything all cut up and prepared for you. All you have to do is put it together here and cook it when you get home. What I really love is that I have all of this food when I leave here, and I don't have to spend any time in the grocery store to get it.

These people left a lot of family behind. That's the only way we have of tracking them.

These people will likely go home to nothing. When they return, in all likelihood they will have to seek out another Red Cross shelter.

They don't realize that on a national basis, the Red Cross responds to a disaster every seven minutes. Probably a half a percent of those ever make the news, so you do forget day in and day out what we do.
