I just put a donation in here. The Chive has raised over 125K in less than 24 hours so hot food can be cooked on location all around Texas for 1st responders and local people in a bad way. There are small towns that have been wiped out and have nothing, not even relief services are showing up.
Time is of the essence, we must answer the call to help (6 Photos) : theCHIVE
Local chapters are organizing food, clothing and essential drives that are being shipped out at the end of the week as well. My family had a talk over dinner we are heading to the stores Wednesday night to get a lot of baby stuff, and then donating a bunch of clothing, toys etc..
They also blocked out a couple of floors of rooms at the Westin in Austin to give out to free to people who had to evacuate.
This is why I am am Chive Green level monthly donor. You cannot fix all the worlds problems, but you can help try to make the place 10% happier.
I am also trying to find out how to help local animal shelters. I am sure they are being overwhelmed.
Hang in there gang. A hurricane sucks as it is, what is happening now is just cruel.
