After two weeks and some necessary rest, you can return to the area for another two weeks. "We need people to help us so we can help others that have been impacted by these hurricanes," said Washbish. "We are going to get you trained on maybe it's shelter, maybe it's feeding, maybe it's mass care. It just depends on whatever the need is right there."Washbish admits this is the most horrific disaster she's seen in a long time, but it's what Red Cross does and they refuse to back down.
