Thank you, everyone of you still bringing in donations . # Rockstars
And our locals make sure we have what we need . Y'all are amazing.
Donations this week ,
Person in Pennsylvania Uber supplies to us. Gentleman from Ohio , dropped off a truck load of cleaning supplies and water
Our good friends in the Timber Pines community have several donation drop offs this past week they are Amazing 😍 And so many more .
We will do an official post when we are done .
I will now be staying thru the weekend.
We are going to scale down a lil .
We're packing warm clothes and baby formula , diapers hygiene need to go to the Carolinas next week.
The truck that left this week is caught up in a nightmare drop off at a location where I believe FEMA has taken control of the distribution center .
So it will be going to a different location. I'm working with the group I will not name yet . That can get the supplies into the areas that need it the most . If you would like to donate to them .
They are telling me they are loaded with clothes . It's very hard , there's so much they are spread very thin up there. They are exhausted and just tired of having to deal with people trying to stop them . They won't show it in the news .
So charcoal small bags , are easier to drop or take by horse back .
Mini grilles , small to carry.
5 gal buckets , to wash stuff in.
Flashlights , any type of solor lighting. . Even like the ones we put in your yards . They can charge them by day and use them at night .
Blankets , any lightly used sleeping bags . Pots , to cook out of .
Any camping tents small , large . But they have to be in a bag that can be carried. Not a plastic bag . Tupperware with lids .
Small first aid kits .
Foldable coolers . That hold heat or cold . Big coolers are harder to move .
Diapers and feminine hygiene products.
Small or medium sized things will travel faster . It's not flat lands . It's terrain that is difficult to navigate on a good day . And the trails are almost impossible to get thru. . They are using chain saws to make paths to get in the areas that haven't been touched . People are waiting . And it's started to snow .
I'll update , as I get updates from them . This is not going away in a week this is years of clean up and rebuilding. Pray for Carolina, Tennessee. Oh , any horse blankets, new , old . It's getting cold ,need to keep the horses and mules warm .
And the news is not telling the truth about how catastrophic it is up there.
For our surrounding communities
I will be staying at this location .
As of now until Tuesday as a hub location for , Aripika and people in sea pines area . I do not have the ability to pull my trailer in there and take care of everyone. I'm hearing they need help desperately.
But if I can't feed and provide for several hundred people at once .
I would be causing more chaos.
I am networking with those great food trucks people. See if we can get some set up for them. .
Or deliver hot means to a location.
So I have a few people networking with others in that area , we're going to box stuff up and take it to their homes. Or a drop location.
The elderly and family's with children. Will be first .
Please send me a PM .
Phone number
Please do not post you name or address or phone number on this page . Send to me in a private message.
One of us girls will call you . Help with your list . And we will make an afternoon drop off .
As well as still providing for those who have just returned from leaving Florida and you have come back to devastating situation. Met about 15 people just returning from evacuate out of state . That are just seeing there homes for the first time .
We have people displaced everywhere .
Please share the page with your friends. I need a few more to start going live. So I can bring you live updates .
Tomorrow we will have hot food .
It was gonna be goodbye 😭 day .
But I've decided I can still help them with our drop off , or they can pick it up .

Solor power anything is AWESOME
It could be weeks , before they get FEMA trailers in here for these people. Some don't want to leave. And be displaced away from all that they have and know . There around people they know . It's been tragic for most , especially our elderly, and the kids .
Anything you can do
I will get it in the hands of those who need it .
You may choose where you want your donation to go.
Anyone food trucks
Ladies or men who love to cook
If you want to make food , I have containers to make up plates and all the condiments to go with it.

Through all of this I've watched the people giving , and then the stories of those loosing everything. .
It has been amazing how everyone has come together.
Please follow this page for all new updates . Times of food delivery.
We are working very hard to take care of our people.
At the same time having to be very aware of not so good people. Who take advantage in tragady.
We are not a Walmart .
These item's are for those that are damaged , no power , lost everything
Working on their homes .

We will continue
