Survive, Sustain, Succeed. This phrase, which is the motto of the Alabama Gulf Coast Coastal Resiliency Coalition (CRC), sums up what the Chamber BCLC saw in Alabama on October 27, 2010.
Taryn Bird and Mia Chung of BCLC contributed to this post.
Today BCLC announced that business assistance in response to the Chilean earthquake has reached $1.65 million.
BCLC’s founder and executive director Stephen Jordan today appeared as an expert witness before the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs’ hearing, “The Next Big Disaster: Is the Private Sector Prepared?”
As relief and recovery work continue in Haiti – perhaps made even more trying as organizations stretch their resources to respond to the Chilean earthquake, as well – reading personal accounts from on-the-ground aid workers is uplifting.
