Help Us Put Together a Disaster Plan

This month, Wayne VOAD will put together a plan for responding in the event of a disaster.

Mark your calendars for the following dates when individuals are invited to come and help us make decisions about what we would do to help our neighbors-in-need and how we would implement our plan. 

A meeting schedule is listed below. Thank you to the Wayne Public Schools and the Wayne Public Library for graciously offering to host our meetings. We look forward to seeing everyone there.
