Operation:
Sidney, NY
August,
2006
Community:
Town of Sidney,
Delaware County, NY
Goals:
Many
towns in New York's Southern Tier region suffered tremendous damage
from floods in the summer of 2006. Although The
Giving Circle’s primary focus is Katrina
ravaged Waveland, MS, when disaster hit so close to The
Giving Circle, Inc's home base of Saratoga Springs,
NY, we felt the need to respond.
Accomplishments:
A
team from The Giving Circle, Inc.
met in Sidney and dropped off three loads of clothes, housewares,
toys and appliances. The team traveled to home sites and helped
residents clear debris and mud from their property and homes.
