Two local volunteers with American Red Cross arrived in Kentucky over the weekend to help people recover from the devastating damage of the historic flooding.
This weekend, three local volunteers arrived in Kentucky to help prepare vehicles to bring food to the hardest hit communities.
The American Red Cross already has nearly 250 volunteers on the ground helping the people of Kentucky. Mary Noll, of Lower Merion, hit the ground running when she arrived to the American Red Cross Headquarters in Lexington, Kentucky. She has been volunteering since Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. "It was pretty ugly when I got here," Noll said. "You can feel the tension rise every time it starts to rain here."There have been 16 shelters set up so far for the people who have been put out of their homes and have lost nearly everything.
"I was sitting on my couch and saying, ‘What am I doing not helping the people that need our help so badly? This is something I can do, I can give my time and energy to make sure they are taken care of,'" said Noll.
