A team from Samaritan’s Purse U.S. Disaster Relief was in Connecticut for four weeks helping homeowners who were affected by the tornadoes. The team was based in North Haven at Hope Christian Church.

Volunteers came from more than 12 states at their own expense and joined with local day volunteers including the North Haven and Hamden CERT teams. More than 150 jobs were completed in towns across the region including North Haven, Hamden, Naugatuck, Brookfield, and Southington.
