My prayers go out to all of our friends whom have been affected by this dangerous hurricane.  

WHAT CAN WE DO TO HELP?  PLEASE LET US KNOW.

In the meantime, I have put together a list of some organizations we can donate to to help.  I am happy to keep expanding the list as I hear from all of you:

CONVOY OF HOPE, THE SALVATION ARMY, AMERICAN RED CROSS, UNITED WAY, SAMARITAN’S PURSE, OPERATION BLESSING, ALL HANDS AND HEARTS, SAVE THE CHILDREN, AMERICARES,  NORTH CAROLINA DISASTER RELIEF FUND, GREATER GOOD CHARITIES (FOR PETS), AND THE HUMANE SOCIETY (ANIMAL RESCUE).

Many of the above organizations have a specific area on their websites so that you can donate to help the Hurricane Helene victims.  

OTHER WAYS WE CAN HELP OUR FRIENDS IN NEED: 

Help people clean up their homes if possible.

Offer to pick up and do their laundry.  Especially those whose clothes got wet due to flooding.

Get cleaning supplies for them such as shovels, bleach, pump sprayer bottles to put bleach in to kill mold.

Make a meal and take it to them.  Or purchase a meal and take it to them.  

Help find temporary housing for them.  Possibly, someone would be willing to let them stay for free or at a discounted rate. 

And let’s please continue to pray for everyone.

XOXO Sharon
