I am aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be,
but most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see.

Heartland Tornado Relief

The photos, reports, text messages, tweets...they're all devastating. 

Let's do what we can to help.

Organizations local to Kentucky that are helping

World Central Kitchen is on the ground providing meals. They do great work worldwide. Remember to designate funds toward heartland tornado relief.

The State of Kentucky has their own fund set up, if you wanted to go that route for some reason. This is not an endorsement. https://secure.kentucky.gov/formservices/Finance/WKYRelief

PLEASE GIVE BLOOD IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE!

As a regular blood donor I am aware of restrictions that prevent so many from donating blood. It is imperative that you consider it if you are able to give. Thanks!

More info:

Operation BBQ Relief is already there as well. Great organization, and I’ve known a few people who have personally volunteered with them in the past. They have a gofundme set up here.

The usual nationwide disaster non-profits are on board (Red Cross, Salvation Army, Direct Relief, etc.) but I don't have a lot of details to share. By all means, if that is your preference, find them online.

If anyone has additional info on how to help, feel free to send it my way.

Hurricane Ida Relief

Yes, yes, I know. I'm terrible.

Louisiana is going to need assistance for a long time. Here's how you can help:

Cajun Navy Relief - cajunnavy-forms.nogginoca.com/donate.html

All Hands and Hearts - allhandsandhearts.org 

Project HOPE - projecthope.org

World Central Kitchen - wck.org

Direct Relief - directrelief.org


I know how hard it is to move forward after your life and livelihood have been wrecked. My heart goes out to them. I'm too sick and poor to do anything but share info these days, but I do what I can when I can. We did have the storm here as well, but to a very small degree in comparison. My brother and I lost power for about 5 hours, but were otherwise fine.

Thanks for all you do to help those in need.
