Although Sister-Corps is not classified as “first responders,” we excel in “rapid response,” providing crucial support in the early days after disasters. During the height of COVID-19, we partnered with others to deliver essential health and hygiene items to the Navajo Nation in the Four Corners region, sending thousands of dollars worth of requested supplies directly to Navajo distribution centers.

When Hurricane Laura hit Louisiana, Sister-Corps quickly sent supplies to support first responders and survivors. Similarly, after catastrophic flooding in Eastern Kentucky, a “lightning” team was deployed to Vicco to distribute water, sack lunches, and hygiene items. The team also worked tirelessly to “muck out” homes, helping families begin the rebuilding process. Additional rapid response efforts have extended to the Houma Nation in Louisiana, providing much-needed assistance during challenging times.
