Red Cross Helps Four Families After Fire in Woodbury

The American Red Cross is helping four families – eight adults – no children after a fire yesterday on Main St S, Woodbury. The Red Cross provided assistance to meet the families’ immediate needs. Responders included: Cathy Tsacoyeanes, Joe Cozza, Jim Tsacoyeanes and  Bert Goff.

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 the commitment of our volunteers.
