Operation Blessing Brings Relief to Hurricane Sandy Victims

By Operation Blessing International

NEW JERSEY– In the wake of Hurricane Sandy’s devastating hit to the Northeast U.S., bringing severe flooding, record-breaking storm surges, and snow, Operation Blessing disaster teams are on the ground bringing relief to some of the hardest-hit communities.

Under the leadership of Jody Gettys, Director of U.S. Disaster Relief, the OBI team pre-staged staff and equipment in Virginia before deploying north to New Jersey and New York to coordinate relief efforts with local partners and emergency management officials.

The OBI team on the ground currently includes a number of staff and equipment including a mobile command center; mobile kitchen with the capacity to serve up to 2,000 meals daily; construction trailers with tools and safety equipment needed for debris removal, tarping roofs, flood clean-up and gutting homes; kerosene heaters, and more.
