If you would like to help here is a way: Shared by Lisa Snuggs
FRIENDS, I need your HELP. I will join Mission Love Seeds early next week on a trip to tornado devastated Tuscaloosa, Alabama to deliver much needed basic supplies to the families who's lives have been torn apart. We will rent as many moving vans as needed to move the donations so we will be collecting MONEY to pay for the gas and rental. We need canned food, clothes, shoes, hats, bedding, pillows, medical, dental and hygiene supplies. We need large umbrellas and folding chairs that you won't want back. small stuffed animals and doll babies for the children. Bring all donations to Keller Williams Realty at 151 Regions Way in Destin, FL 32541
If you need someone to pick it up, call me at 850-830-2331. Dontations can be made at MissionLoveSeeds.com via paypal or at the Keller Williams office.
