Volunteerism in a Disaster: A Real-Life Engagement Learning Experience.
- Authors
Taylor, James; Taylor, Jessica Averitt
- Abstract
In this article the authors discuss how they participated in relief work after several communities were destroyed by tornados in Alabama, on April 27, 2011. The authors say that after assessing the relief needs in Tuscaloosa, they determined that the best option was to address relief needs from their location in Gadsden, a town located in Alabama. The authors took the help of local organizations to advertise the tornado relief effort, and collected hundreds of donations for Tuscaloosa.
