Many local non-profits aren't prepared for disasters. That's according to the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend, which is training non-profit employees in Rock Island and Scott counties.
Program Director, Kelly Thompson, says a lot of charities don't take time to plan for tornadoes, flooding, and manmade disasters. Or, they don't pay enough attention to it.
Incentive to prepare, not just a binder on the shelf that collects dust
The Community Foundation encourages as many workers as possible from the non-profits to attend the disaster prep sessions.
