Disaster From A Kid's Point Of View
By Maggie, age 13
I live in Arkansas, as you know we had a terrible ice storm, and my family
lost a lot of things. We had no power for two weeks and my family had
no house! We are very thankful for the Red Cross, they brought food to
everyone (my mom and I helped deliver every day). Since we had no house
and no insurance on our "broken" home, we called FEMA. My mom
was the fist to call, from our area, and we received money for our house
and a place to stay until we got a new house. I would like to thank you
and the entire FEMA team because if it wasn't for you I could not be sitting
here in my own room typing you this letter of thanks!
