I didn’t expect to become a Hurricane writer in my retirement but as long as help is needed I’ll keep at it. We have Kossacks in flooded areas we haven’t heard from yet. Regardless of any qualifiers we have people in need who have lost everything. They are human beings and as fellow humans beings we need to help them.
Here are some organizations that are helping now. I’ll keep checking out others and let you know what I find.
