Notes: Because of the volume of items in this database, we decided to group various items together under "subcategories" of "key items" that are needed in disaster recovery. For items needed in the first days, refer to the First Response Category.

Note that each "key item" below has a whole list under it of "more specific items".

KEY ITEMS are listed here for a quick find.

Data Entry Note: Key Items have " * (ANY/ALL Types)" in the Item Name.

When you pick an item that is NOT a KEY ITEM from the other categories, make sure to pick also the "corresponding" KEY ITEM. This will allow people that are placing supplies quickly to find all those that may have an interest in a *related* KEY ITEM. For example, your site may need a 100 ft garden hose. So go ahead and pick the item for the 100 ft garden hose. BUT also choose the KEY ITEM called HOSE, GARDEN HOSE, so that anyone with a garden hose won't overlook the site that only checked "Hose, 100 ft garden hose". Chances are, if site needs a 100 ft garden hose and a person has a 50 ft garden hose to give, the site will be excited to get the 50 ft one anyway.
