Recent Flooding in Houston; Here's How You Can Help!!!

This week's column  is dedicated to information about our city's recent  flooding. Be sure to SCROLL DOWN for info from FEMA and how to help!

 

What a week it has been in the Houston area. For our out of town readers, Monday we were pounded by rain. There are areas that have never flooded, that flooded, and I mean flooded. The Houston metro area  is infiltrated with 10 bayous , of which EIGHT overflowed their banks within 24 hours. Incredible devastation.  I'm a native Houstonian, and never has there been such extensive damage.

 

How you can help:

• DONATE BLOOD MD Anderson critically low after flooding. INFO HERE
• DONATE MONEY- Houston's official Storm Recovery Fund
• VOLUNTEER at the Food Bank to assemble food relief packages

Here are some useful links about what to do after a flood. Please pass to someone in need!

• What to do after a flood
• The flood claim process
• FEMA's summary of coverage (NFIP)
• Current NFIP Handbook 

Stay safe! Stay dry!
