  2. Hi,

    Looking to drive down a pick up packed with supplies to one of these relief locations. Who can I contact to make sure our supplies will be accepted?

  3. Sharon Hastings says:

    American Legion Post 136 Pine Island , Florida has been requested to send help, they need contact person and phone number.

  4. I have lots of clothing and some diapers, but I’m in California and I can’t afford to ship all this stuff, is there a drop-off place in the Los Angeles County?

  5. Jason Cook says:

    I would like to talk to someone to ensure that our goods are going to the right place and are protected and given to the right people.

    Thanks,

    Jason
