Meet Pilar Cantor. She serves her community as a Disaster Action Team Volunteer. After local emergencies, she travels across New York City's five boroughs to help provide affected residents with water, food, shelter, and other emergency items. "We are so vulnerable to lose everything in just a matter of seconds, and for the Red Cross to be there and to be able to provide that assistance, it's just amazing." Thank you, Pilar! #RedCrossMonth #volunteer #volunteering #EndHomeFires #NewYork
