Our response

World Vision has pre-positioned 1,500 kits of relief supplies in its New York City warehouse in the Bronx.

Flood clean-up kits, personal hygiene items, and emergency food kits are safely stockpiled, while staff evacuated the facility early on Monday. More supplies are being shipped from Dallas.
