CT Red Cross Assists Local Family after Frisbee Street Fire

The American Red Cross is helping one family of three adults after a structure fire yesterday on Frisbie Street in New Fairfield. The Red Cross provided assistance to meet the family’s immediate needs. Responders included: Cliff Morgan, Jim Tsacoyeanes and Alex Ferreira.
 
The Red Cross is also providing comfort kits containing personal care items such as toothbrushes, deodorant; shaving supplies and other items a resident might need when suddenly displaced from their home by a fire. In addition, a recovery envelope containing information helpful to families recovering from a fire, including tips on cleanup; notification of important contacts; dealing with damaged items and more was provided.  

Those affected will connect with Red Cross caseworkers in the coming days to work on a longer-term recovery plan. The Red Cross is able to provide assistance through the generosity of our donors and commitment of our volunteers.
