We have had many requests for suggestions of Houston and/or disaster relief organizations who would make the best use of monetary donations.
There will be a quilt drive, but for now we need to help by donating money for disaster relief.
I have compiled a list of charity/relief organizations based on referrals from our contacts in Houston, and highly rated organizations that are on the ground now. Please feel free to share this link.
