Disaster Relief
  
Our Mission
It is the goal of SBCV Disaster Relief to assist churches in preparing for disaster by developing a strategy to minister to their communities during crisis through readying their facilities, training their members, securing supplies, and developing protocols that will activate their disaster response plans. Our ultimate goal is to be able to share the love of Christ through sharing the Gospel.
Take a look at the Volunteer Travel Handbook for more information.
