RED CROSS ASSISTS 6 IN MIDDLETOWN
SINGLE-FAMILY HOME FIRE
(Providence, RI – June 7, 2005) The American Red Cross, Rhode Island Chapter has responded to a fire
in a single family home on Aquidneck Drive in Middletown, assisting a total of 6 people.
Red Cross volunteers responded to the fire around 9:00 a.m., providing food, clothing and shelter to 4
adults and 2 children. The Red Cross may also provide up to $500 in medications if the insurance company does not cover their replacement.
The RI Chapter typically spends $1,000 per family of four that it assists. All Red Cross assistance is free,
thanks to contributions from individuals and organizations. The Red Cross is not a government agency and relies on private donations to provide emergency assistance to Rhode Islanders in crisis.
