His task is to help the American Red Cross set up shelters for those who've been displaced.
"I'm going to get supplies to people in need," he said."Whether it's water, or snacks, or shovels, or rakes, blankets. You name it, if people need it, Red Cross is there."
And while he prepares for the long flight to the island, one thing will be on his mind when he arrives.Bamman said he's not worried about his own safety and trusts the Red Cross to keep volunteers safe. It's unclear how long he and other volunteers will be in Hawaii. Anyone trying to get in touch with a loved one in Hawaii can get help from the Red Cross. Call 1-800 RED CROSS and follow the prompts. Give as much detail as you can so workers can help find the person you're looking for.
