Thinking of what else someone like me (an older person) could do in order to prepare myself to support Ontario in emergencies. I came across Ontario Corps. Posting it here just in case it is something that interests you.

If this doesn't work for someone, there's also Red Cross. They have volunteers teams that help people even with small scale disasters like someone's home burned down. It's not a big disaster, but for a family that's perhaps lost everything, having someone to sit with them, give them blankets and maybe some food is a help.
