I grew up on the gulf coast and experienced my first hurricane (that I remember) at the age of 10. In New Orleans, hurricane Betsy. I've since been through some doozies. Camille, Katrina, Rita, etc. We spent days and nights in unsufferable heat with no air conditioning, no electricity and even sometimes no water. I lived in these areas where you would get up and go out in search of bread, gas, or other supplies. In areas where there is mass destruction, I can promise you that you will not get escorted in. You will be asked to unload your truck and turn around. Again, I think your heart is in the right place but you should be trying to raise money for donations and leave the deliveries to the pros.
