Donations will be important before, during, and after the Hurricane.  Read the second and third link below completely. They give links and directions on what to look for in order to give safely. Some links ask for set amounts. If you do not have that and this no way for you to give, give what you have to local charities.  They will have their donations cut do to Harvey and Irma.  By helping this way, everybody receives help.

If you have not left, do not go outside. Authorities have enacted curfew's. Try to stay safe.

Pray for all victims of Hurricane Irma as they go through their darkest hours. If you do not pray. Please keep all in your positive thoughts.
