Dear Friends,
The Virginia Biggers Center at HPUMC has been running a HUGE
Distribution Center for Hurricane Victims in their gym. It has been 
open 7 days a week 9am-6pm for almost a month now.  It is a monster 
effort and they desperately need Volunteers to run it.  I went to 
deliver school uniforms and school supplies collected by girl and
boy  scouts and witnessed the inside and it is quite remarkable what
they  are doing for these people.  It is like a grocery store and it
is all  free for those who have ID and a FEMA number.

I drove by on my way somewhere else on Monday and saw a sign that
says  "Closed until Thursday." I wondered why...so as I was helping
a family  try to find some things to furnish their home I called to
see what  times they would re-open and I asked why they had closed. 
She said  they were all so very weary they had to have a break.  The
sound in her  voice broke my heart.  They really need help!

So I promised to send out the word that they need more help from
everyone in the neighborhood.  I am hoping each of you might help
and  also, in turn, will send out the word to anyone able to
volunteer a few  hours a week to help them.  There are still so many
families that need  to be placed and will need items to make a new
home. And they can get  what they need here.  I will attach info
about this Center in case you  may have some items that they are in
need of at this time.  But what  they need more than anything else
is YOU. Please call the Connect and  Serve Office, 214.523.2246 to
volunteer.

Distribution Center For Donated Relief Goods

and are  short on supplies (needs are listed below.)

Volunteers are needed to sort and deliver donated items. Please call
