Think we have enough folk here who might like to help out those in need?
How about Ruttly putting something together and finding out where we could offer help through the savage board?

Right now they need cash donations , this is the quickest way to render assistance .
American Red Cross
Houston Food Bank
San Antonio Food Bank
American Red Cross provides all needed services ,food,shelter,etc
The food banks were on a short list of reputable charities
We haven't heard from Springman for a day !

The pain is just starting. People displaced, businesses closed, paychecks shut off, cars destroyed, many without full coverage, mortgages don't stop needing paid, ... Guys, this is a big deal.
And the storm is just hanging out, dumping rain on places that are already crushed.

Can't believe Red Cross doesn't take PayPal, just think of all the lost donations ! I will do my donation at the grocery store, then I'm calling the RedCross to complain!

Do we know for certain that we don't have active forum members here that are in need and may not be able to respond due to being displaced?
Not that I mind offering support where it is needed, but I sure would be more inclined to help someone here directly versus dropping money in the big pot.

Stewy , Isn't Youguys a Texas resident , I haven't heard from him for awhile. There 30,000 + displaced and that number is growing ! It is important to support the Red Cross to expedite aid cause if we haven't heard from them they may already be in a shelter. But I would also prefer to help a fellow member.

Just an FYI in many cases when organizations don't use PayPal it is due to PayPal restrictions, not the organization.
I've worked with Red Cross for years, and they do accept PayPal and have for some time.

Thanks Eegore , I must have been on a old site. Much more secure and hella easy with PayPal . I heard on the news that there has been over
$ 110,000,000.00 in donations since the storm hit Texas , Wow ! If you send what you can it all adds up fast.

Yes, it is so heartening to see people reach out and help.'
My company already gave a million, with more coming.
I heard Trump gave a million too.
But hey, if you don't have the big bucks, even a 5 will work
