Howdy ags. Im heading to houston Friday evening with my heavy dump trailer to help out some friends/family. I want to fill the trailer up with needed supplies for the trip down. My previous job involved working with many houston churches and therefore I have many contacts with organizations who are helping in the recovery effort.

Here is what they are asking for:

Shovels
Crow bars/pry bars
Push brooms
Buckets
Contractor trash bags
Sheetrock knives
Box cutters/blades
Tarps
Packing tape
Work gloves
Latex gloves
Dust masks
Underwear
Light weight long sleeve t shirts
Wheelbarrow
Cleaning rags
Spray bottled
Pump sprayers
Bleach
Cromonium
Kilz
Paint rollers/brushes
Laundry detergent
Any and all cleaning supplies
Eye protection
Air mattresses
Gift cards to Wal-Mart, heb, etc (less than 100 value)
Camp stoves/propane
Appropriate food items
Bug spray
Gas/gas cans
Diesel/diesel cans
Toiletries
Box fans
Clorox wipes
Diapers/formula/wipes

Generators, air movers, de-humidifiers (apparently the churches say they will reimburse for these, email for more info)

Shoot me an email if you want to participate. 06texasaggie at gmail.com. i will let you know via email about drop off locations/times. I'm leaving Friday and hope to have a full trailer.

What many of my contacts need are work crews. If you're interested in doing some muck work, I can hook you up there too.

People on my delivery list so far:
Parkway fellowship church
Redeemed community church
City of Houston
...more to come

I think there are actually charities here in Austin looking for volunteer drivers to transport collected donations to affected areas.
