Hi friends- I hope your week is going well so far. I know a lot of people out there have been affected by hurricanes Harvey and Irma. There are people whose homes (and maybe lives!) have been destroyed by these hurricanes.
Something that really hit home for me was seeing the footage of the US and British Virgin Islands. You may remember that B and I went to St. Thomas, St. John and Scrub Island last year. We immediately fell in love with the Virgin Islands and met so many kind, amazing people there who had left the hustle and bustle of city live to live more simply at the beach. The Virgin Islands are seriously so amazing. Seeing footage of all of the destruction there completely broke my heart, and it brought a sense of reality to a situation that didn’t happen right in front of me. It’s really easy to sit behind a computer screen in NC and type “My thoughts and prayers go out to them”. but I hope this post will give you some ideas of other things you can do as well.
Helping All
Texas
Greater Houston Community Foundation
Florida
Caribbean
Love for Love City Foundation (created by Kenny Chesney)
Tim Duncan’s Virgin Island Relief Fund
Pets
Friends for Life Animal Sanctuary
If you know of another great organization that I can list here then please let me know! I will add it to the list.
Side note, when I googled about where to find animal rescues in FL, one of the first things that came up in google search was where to find sperm in Florida. So yeah Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
