My concern is mostly for others in my town that are truly struggling. We can only open our house to some who lost their houses. There are so many more that need help.
That is truly terrible. Have the correct public aide organizations shown up and whatnot?
There are a lot of local “emergency housing” groups, at least around here... providing room and board at nearby establishments. Are you aware of anything like that in your area.
Who is doing volunteer clean-up/sanitation stuff? The local government most likely has ALL public hands on deck.
Those “put you up when your put out” organizations are privately funded... so it’s basically, “someone with money helping out someone in need.” I would give some money for your area’s situation if money was anything that I had to give.
Who would I talk to about coming down there with some enormous lumber-jack types... who drink beer and shoot guns.. ALL DAY.... these boys love to get dirty, help out and LIFT things. They’ll get stuff done.
(Not kidding)
