It was a busy weekend for volunteers from the Mohawk Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross.

In the last three days, the Red Cross has responded to five fires in Oneida County and two fires in Delaware County, assisting a total of 23 people, including five children.

The Red Cross committed more than $5,000 in aid to the families affected by the fires.  All Red Cross assistance is provided free of charge and made possible by the generosity of the public.
