USFA Opens Call Center

The USFA has opened a call center:

EMMITSBURG, MD - The United States Fire Administration, at the request of a number of fire service organizations and disaster relief efforts, announces the opening of a national call center to assist fire organizations seeking to help fire departments, firefighters and their families affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The call center has been created to accept calls from departments with equipment to be donated to departments that have lost theirs. The call center will also be taking calls from fire departments needing equipment in the disaster areas, as well as firefighters seeking assistance with their family needs.

...

The USFA call center number is 1-800-250-9036 and the email address is fireaid@dhs.gov. Starting Saturday, September 24, 2005, the center will be open from 7am to 7pm (EDT), seven days a week until further notice.

One of the best ways to help the people of the gulf coast is to help the firefighters. Once the firefighters are back on their feet, they will be much more effective in helping others in that area.
