At this time, financial donations are most helpful to the current efforts. Donations can be designated for immediate Red Cross relief efforts (such as emergency shelter or clothing) or long-term needs to be coordinated locally (such as security deposits or furniture).
Both the Red Cross and United Way of Windham County will accept donations for the immediate Red Cross efforts, and the United Way of Windham County will be the repository for contributions designated for long-term needs.
