Red Cross volunteers are in Louisiana as the clean-up effort gets underway following Hurricane Ida. American Red Cross Wisconsin Chapter spokesman Justine Kern says a handful of volunteers from Wisconsin were on the ground in Louisiana a couple days before the hurricane made landfall. Kern says more Wisconsin volunteers could be headed to the gulf coast in the days and weeks ahead. Meanwhile, Kern says Red Cross volunteers have been busy all summer, helping with the wildfires out west, and with the Afghan refugees arriving at Fort McCoy.
