It was local vounteers and those from Calgary that helped people clean out their basements and in some cases rebuild. These volunteers could have done a far better job if they had some money and resources to help them out. It may not have been the responsibility of the Red Cross to help them in that manner but the money was sorely lacking.
Then it is an issue with the insurance company and the coverage that the individual possessed. There is no relief organization that will be able to support an individual rebuilding their house after a massive destructive event. What they can do is help community initiatives and disaster response. After that those affected need to rely on their insurance and/or the government for assistance.
