Don't trust @amazon Give to these orgs in the affected areas: http://homelesshouston.org  http://galvestoncountyfoodbank.org  http://ghcf.org .

Best to give Cash. Orgs have purchasing power and can stretch those dollars.

yes, & for those who aren't in the area, those are trusted & reputable orgs. they are non-profits too. Amazon is doing this for profit.

Amazon isn't doing it. A Texas law firm is doing it through Amazon.

ok thanks for the info but does amazon benefit? yes. Not interested. I'd rather give my money to a non-profit. that's just me.

While I get your mentality. Keep in mind that nonprofits benefit a little. They have to keep the lights on 2. From someone who works for 1

Yes, of course the non-profits will keep some for overhead costs, I'd rather them get money to help run their org than give it to Amazon.

Done! Personal hygiene, meds, wipes, mattress and pet food en route! XX

Pet food great idea!!! Ur an angel!

The linked need list from @ShaunKing's original tweet is great. Items for every budget and every concern.

I'm an unemployed, single mom. I ordered feminine products and air mattress to be sent. EVERYONE can do SOMETHING to help. TU for posting.

Thank you Jenni.

What's the best way to help #PortArthur and #Beaumont?
