They will continue the work of an initial team of responders, which was temporarily based in the Philippines and shipped to Japan enough food, water and relief supplies to fill a 40-foot-long container. While in Japan, the team's primary goals will be to work through port logistics, ensure current channels are in working order and Convoy of Hope's footprint in Japan is expanded. Help Convoy of Hope help Japan. "Since the earthquake and tsunami we have been able to provide food and supplies, through our in-country partners, to meet people's needs," says Kary Kingsland, senior vice president of Global Initiatives for Convoy of Hope. "We will continue meeting needs and are dedicated to finding the most efficient ways to help many more survivors now and in the coming weeks and months." Convoy of Hope's medical advisor, whose knowledge base will be a valuable asset to the team and the treatment of Japanese nationals, will accompany the team headed for Japan. -------------------------------- FROM THE SITE 3/12/11: If the tsunami causes major devastation on the West Coast, Convoy of Hope will deploy teams and supplies to devastated areas. Ron Showers, director of Global Outreach, is in Honolulu making preparations for an upcoming community outreach. Last night he left his hotel and moved to higher ground after tsunami sirens started to sound. “Thousands of people fled the low-lying areas,” he says. “Gas stations were packed with people trying to get fuel, many locals and tourists fled to high ground and sought shelter in hospitals and high school gyms.” Showers will monitor the situation in Hawaii after the tsunami hits. According to Kingsland, the Disaster Response team will closely monitor further developments and move forward with plans to help the victims of the disasters.

notes: 2010 Floods ravage Tennessee Four Convoy of Hope tractor-trailers filled with food and water will arrive in Nashville, Tenn., later today [May 5, 2010] where floods from recent rains killed several people and caused tens of millions of dollars worth of damage. You can help. “This disaster warrants immediate response and support,” says Kary Kingsland, vice president of disaster response for Convoy of Hope. “We are working with several organizations, churches and government agencies to ensure our food and supplies reach those who need them most.” According to Kingsland, Convoy of Hope will have four mobile distribution sites up and running by this evening. From those sites, teams will take food, water and supplies door-to-door in communities in and around Nashville that were flooded. Your secure online donation can help these communities recover. Earlier this week assessment teams from Convoy of Hope were in Tennessee to discern how the organization could most effectively help flooding victims. To start, Convoy of Hope will be working in Goodlettsville, Madison and Bellevue. “We’re equipping volunteers with the tools and supplies they need to help those families whose homes and businesses were flooded,” adds Kingsland. ============ FACEBOOK - http://www.facebook.com/convoyofhope -> FACEBOOK - http://www.facebook.com/convoyofhope
