WATERFORD, Mich. - Michimich -- Waterford, MI – Disaster Relief at Work (DRAW), a Waterford-based non-profit organization, is providing relief services to residents along South Carolina's coast who have been effected by Tropical Storm Debby.

Debby arrived on the Gulf Coast of Florida early Monday, and is expected to produce historic rainfall totals and catastrophic flooding as it sweeps up the east coast through Sunday.

DRAW will be delivering a full trailer load of supplies from their Michigan warehouse to give out to victims in the effected area.

After a disaster hits, DRAW visits the site with supplies that are immediately needed by the disaster victims, then assesses the damage and needs of the survivors to determine if either more supplies or a team to perform any volunteer services is needed.
