Disaster Emergency Services

Twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year, through our Disaster Action Team, the Morongo
Basin Chapter of the Red Cross provides emergency disaster relief. These disasters range
from  single-family  house fires  to  earthquakes,  floods  and  wildfires.   A  trained  staff  of
volunteers  donates thousands of hours each year to support  both local and national relief
efforts.

All Red Cross disaster assistance is free, made possible by voluntary donations of
time and money from the American people.

Red Cross volunteers and caseworkers assist families with disaster-related needs such as:
  • Temporary shelter
  • Food
  • Clothing
  • Health services (replacement of prescription drugs and eyeglasses lost in disaster)
  • Disaster mental health
  • Basic household furnishings

Morongo Basin residents can place disaster welfare inquiries about relatives living in areas
impacted by natural or man-made disasters, war or civil unrest, either in the United States or
another country.

Please call (760) 365-5501 if you are in need of assistance or more information.

of the Red Cross in locating relatives and friends in other countries.
