How you can best help:- Monetary gifts are the most helpful, as they allow local congregations to purchase items to meet the specific needs of their community.
- Gift cards to national chains are also needed to help people replace food, clothing, and medications lost in the storm.
- Other items that can be used include quilts, blankets, thermal underwear, new regular underwear, socks, winter boots, coats, hats, and gloves. Many times, shipping donated items can cost more than the items themselves.
- Consider holding a garage sale, bake sale or other fund raiser and donating the proceeds to allow the needed items to be purchased locally — your donation will go directly where it is needed most.
You may also give by mail:
