I CANNOT stress this enough- please do NOT self deploy to a disaster zone! I know we all want to help, but there are protocols in place to keep the volunteers AND victims safe! The infrastructure in most of these places has already been compromised and we don’t want anyone else in imminent danger! That said , check out these places you CAN help out!
