Drought, heat and thunderstorms, oh my!

We just want to celebrate the 250th anniversary as a nation...with forecasted thunderstorms this weekend, now is the time to prepare.

Know how to stay cool in extreme heat, even when the power is out. Find places with air conditioning that you can go to. Find shade, wet your skin with water, avoid high-energy activities and wear lightweight, light-colored clothing.

Happy National Volunteer Week!! We are so grateful to each and every one of our wonderful volunteers.

April 19-25 is National Volunteer Week! In 2025, RHHD had the support of 3,123 Medical Reserve Corps volunteers. In just one week, 64 of these volunteers supported Winter Storm Blair and the Richmond Water Crisis, contributing 223 hours to shelters, call centers, and water distribution sites. Our volunteers are invaluable. This week especially, make sure to thank the volunteers around you. If you are a volunteer, we honor and celebrate you this week and every week!
