I am willing to donate $1000 to rent a truck, purchase water and other needed supplies and take it to them. I will do this if I can get four or five others to assist me, perhaps make the trip and donate money and time. There are several veteran organizations here in TV. American Legion, Vietnam Veterans of America, DAV, VFW etc. Can I get some other veterans or just people who will help me?
You are a good and decent man and I commend you for your thoughtfulness to those in need. Unfortunately with everything else going on at the moment, this tragedy has not had the coverage that it should have received. I do, however, have a suggestion for you. Check out this website About General Honore – General Honore, LLC you may find that Gen. Russel Honore has people that could guide in the direction of where help is most needed.
