I tried calling today the same gentleman but could not contact him.
But something good came out of today. A friend of mine who lives in St. Louis has family in the affected areas and between them and their neighbors who lost their homes, I am going to send some giftcards to them. My friend informed me that some of her family are expected to leave the shelters and make their way to her house with in the coming days. Hopefully this little bit in giftcards will help them at least get some of the basic necessities they need.
Just wanted to let you all know. I'm going to try calling for this gentlemen again. If i do hear anything promising i will let you all know.
