<div dir="ltr">Thanks Sarah for sharing the funding for our Resiliency Program and thanks Luis for your guidance. I don't know if this works or is the best approach, but in my mind if we can develop a standard suite of resilience support kits and reach out proactively to chapters in areas/countries that are often in risk of similar disasters, for future preparation, would that be a worthwhile program to start? Some chapters may know what they need to do, some may not. Or some chapters (NYC? Thanks Stuart for your input!) or several together may step up and apply for foundation funding to set up such kits and share/benefit others??<div><br></div><div>Just wondering...<br><div><br></div><div>Thanks, <br>Charles</div><div><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jul 3, 2024 at 9:41 AM Sarah Armstrong <<a href="mailto:armstrong@isocfoundation.org">armstrong@isocfoundation.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg3979977890613897786">

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Charles,<br>
<br>
That is one of the reasons that the resilience grants exists at ISOC. No doubt preparedness is crucial to overcome the disaster. Chapters should submit their applications to the Foundation to develop such plans and reduce the impact. Thanks to you and Caleb
for your efforts in letting the Foundation be aware of these needs.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all, I also wonder if in the past ISOC or certain of its chapters have developed a set of guidelines to do in preparation before and after such natural disasters that are pending (hurricanes and typhoons are probably at least like
you can get some warning of compared with let's say earthquakes). It may be one thing worthwhile for us including myself and Caleb to check with the Foundation and staff about any such experience, so in this or future occurrences chapters and local communities
can be more quickly offered assistance. This may become more useful as we face more extreme weather conditions all over the world from climate change. <br>
<br>
And of course, we hope for the best for our friends and communities and all the people in the region.
