How Our Effort Works
The Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort immediately responds to any major disaster in the continental United States by sending truckloads of emergency food, water, cleaning, and other supplies to disaster victims. We are a non-profit corporation, tax-exempt - state taxes and federal income tax under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3). Only fifteen employees are paid in the entire organization. Unpaid volunteers are the secret to success of our organization. # Who Gets Help?
# Strict guidelines apply to type of disaster
# Advance team goes immediately to survey the situation
# Advance team aids in setting up distribution centers in disaster areas
# Advance team follows up to see that all areas are covered
# All cases are checked out, not an individual benevolent fund
# Anyone at site can receive assistance regardless of race, color, or creed We are Cost Effective
More than 85% of every donated dollar goes directly to disaster victims, 86.82% to be precise. Expenses such as salaries, utilities, supplies, maintenance, depreciation, truck rentals, etc. amounted to only 13.18%. We are proud of this remarkable record and acknowledge that without our many volunteers this could not be possible. Distribution of Supplies
Churches of Christ Disaster Relief only works through the local Church of Christ in the community or town, where the disaster has occurred. If there is no Church of Christ in the town, Disaster Relief will contact the nearest town that has a Church of Christ and ask for help. Supplies will be distributed by this congregation "in the name of the Lord" to anyone who has been affected by the disaster regardless of race, color, creed, or religion.
