About Emergency Disaster Services

The Salvation Army of Washoe County is always ready to respond when tragedy strikes. Through the many volunteers that help out, we are able to provide hot meals, snacks, beverages, cleaning kits, warm blankets and many other basic essential needs. We help when many types of disaster strike, from house fires and wildfires to a natural disaster like earthquakes and floods. The Salvation Army will be there to meet human needs without discrimination. We help both the victims of a disaster and the first responders to it. On top of the practical and physical needs, we also provide emotional support. If a disaster is going to take a long time to recover from, we also assist with the longtime needs of victims as they rebuild their lives. No matter the disaster, The Salvation Army of Washoe County will be here to help.
