So I am in a death and dying class this semester.
Dealing with loss is a major thing we are learning about
semester.
Early September Hurricane Ike hit Texas, it hit hard.
Most of South Texas was left without hope.
My wonderful teacher was contacted by Saint Vincent de Paul, an
organization that does relief help. They needed our help.
So our class has been on a mission this semester to gather as
much needed food and hygiene goods as possible.
Now their needs have changed.
Because of the destruction many people do not have homes to
sleep in or protection from looters.
Many families are sleeping on their lawns.
The weather is getting colder and they have resorted to sleeping
on pallets of wood stuffed with newspaper.
Below is a picture of a common scene in south Texas.
What I would like to ask....
If you could donate blankets, jackets (all sizes) sweatpants/shirts,
socks,gloves, and gently used clothes
please let me know.
Just leave a comment and I can come pick up any donations
or arrange a place for drop off if you prefer.
Any Collin County Community College campus has a contact person.
Let me know if you want any other info.
