People who suffered during the flood in Krymsk on July 7, 2012, of course, need help. And they are provided with it, in addition to official structures, also by volunteers. After the news of the tragedy, the question began to be raised more often: how can one become a voluntary assistant at the scene of a disaster.

The easiest way to become a volunteer in Krymsk is to go directly to the place and join a group of rescuers and assistants in cleaning the area there. At the site of the recent disaster, any able-bodied hands are welcome. Moreover, there are practically no restrictions. After all, there it is necessary to prepare food for the victims, to deliver it to the destroyed houses, to help in the preparation of benefits, etc.
Those volunteers who are going to help the victims are asked to take care of their own lives in advance. You need to bring a tent, warm clothes and dry rations for a few days. It is also necessary to have rubber boots with you, as in damaged houses there is a huge amount of dirt that you can not even try to walk on without protective shoes.
You can become a volunteer through the Red Cross. You can find out all the necessary information about this on the official website of the International Organization. In addition, you can leave a request on the portal of the youth branch of the Red Cross and on the corresponding pages in social networks.
This method is good because the organization’s specialists will give you a short course of lectures on what needs to be done in the disaster area, how to behave properly so as not to interfere with the rescuers and other officials. You will also be able to accompany the cargo with humanitarian aid, which was collected by volunteers in the field. Upon arrival at the place, your task is to find out where to deliver the goods. Then you can join those volunteers who are already working there.
Volunteers who are specialists in a particular field, for example, medicine, law and construction, are especially useful. It is these core specializations that are most needed today in the affected village. Doctors help to vaccinate, control people with cardiovascular insufficiency and hypertension, and also help to control the sanitary and epidemiological situation in the region. Builders come in handy for rebuilding destroyed houses. And lawyers will help people quickly get new documents and compensation. Indeed, in Krymsk there are so many elderly people who have a poor understanding of how things will actually happen.
