Disasters spread Red Cross thin in Vermont, NH — Maine News ...
BARRE, Vt. — It’s been two weeks now that displaced residents from a flooded trailer park have been staying in an American Red Cross shelter at the Barre Auditorium, and it’s not known when the shelter will be able to close up shop.
That’ s just one of the unusual expenses the disaster relief agency’s regional office serving Vermont and part of New Hampshire has had to absorb this spring, making it one of many Red Cross chapters around the country stretched thin by a string of weather-related emergencies.
Doug Bishop, director of community partnerships and education with the organization’s office in Burlington, said in an interview Thursday that a tough 2011 began with an unusually high number of house fires during the winter. The Red Cross routinely helps people displaced by such events with temporary housing, food, clothing and other basics, as well as with getting them in touch with ot her aid agencies.
But as winter turned to spring, things just got worse, Bishop said. The Brooks House, a large apartment block in Brattleboro, burned in mid-April, leaving the Red Cross scrambling to provide assistance to people who lived there.
On April 26, heavy rains triggered flash floods in Jeffersonville and Cambridge, further tapping the relief agency’s resources. Then the waters of Lake Champlain began rising to record levels — they’re still above flood stage — displacing residents of low-lying areas from Burlington to Swanton. And on May 26, several central Vermont communities including Montpelier, Berlin and Plainfield, but especially Barre, were flooded when up to 5 inches of rain fell on the region.
In Brattleboro, the Red Cross kept a shelter open for about a week, working to find new places to live for about 70 people burned out of their homes. In Cambridge and Jeffersonville, the agency provided food while living space was donated by the Smuggler’s Notch ski resort, Bishop said.
The disasters were unlike anything faced by the American Red Cross of Vermont and the New Hampshire Valley in at least five years, Bishop said. “Suddenly we were faced with three within about six weeks.”
Just responding to the winter fires, the Red Cross had spent its entire $145,000 budget for direct assistance with personal expenses like food and clothing by the end of March — three months short of the close of its fiscal year June 30, Bishop said. That has meant it has had to rely for assistance on the national American Red Cross parent organization.
