(WBBM NEWSRADIO) - As tourists leave Maui after the deadly wildfires, a man from Frankfort is on his way to the island to help.
Paul Bamman has gone to disaster areas in the past as a volunteer with the Red Cross.
“The one commonality with all of them is that there’s people hurting right now that need help, and that’s what the Red Cross is all about, is helping,” Bamman told CBS-2.
He said he’s driven by a desire to help and said he updated his availability on the Red Cross website and got a call within an hour.
Would he go to Hawaii?
“Absolutely,” he said.
