Support emergency response in Utah

UServeUtah is the state's lead agency for volunteers and donations before, during, and after disasters. UServeUtah leads the Volunteer and Donations Coordination Team within the Emergency Operations Center. This team is made up of a variety of emergency management professionals from both government and nonprofit organizations.

Volunteer

Do not self-deploy. Volunteers are currently not needed at the state level for emergency response. Visit JustServe.org, American Red Cross of Utah, or Team Rubicon to explore local volunteer opportunities.

Donate

Support current and future emergency response efforts by donating to the Utah Cultural and Community Engagement Foundation. Donations are tax deductible and will go directly to support communities in need.

Be prepared

One helpful way to aid in emergency response is to be prepared for disasters before they strike. Act now to ensure that you, your family, and your community are prepared. Visit Be Ready Utah to access resources for families, schools, businesses and communities.
