re: Charity/Aid Thread: Where you can volunteer, donate, etc.

We have a ton of clothes as well. Does Celtic (or anywhere else) need clothes?

Anyone have a way of getting in touch with some of the animal shelters in the area? I'm sure they are taking in a ton of animals and need extra food and bedding.

I'm headed out there now with kennel, dog food and water plus bags of clothes. If they don't need the clothes I'll let y'all know and try to find somewhere else. I know someone needs them or will need them

Thank you.

I don't know how many people still need sand bags, but I just showed up to a fire station yesterday and filled sandbags and loaded them into cars. You can look into that.

LAFOURCHE:

Peltier Park To Accept Donations For Flood Victims

Mayor Tommy Eschete has announced that both the Offices of the Mayor and City Council of the City of Thibodaux have organized a food and household goods drive starting today, Aug. 15 for the victims of the flood disaster in our neighboring parishes.

The City’s collection point will be located at the Peltier Park Recreation Center, 151 Peltier Park Drive.

Items will be accepted today from noon to 8 p.m. and tomorrow from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. The collection effort will continue until further notice. It would be extremely helpful if items donated can be boxed so as to ease in the loading of trucks.

We will be accepting donations of non-perishable food items, household paper products, cleaning supplies, disposable diapers, bottled water, pet supplies and blankets. At this point we are not accepting clothing as there are many efforts in other areas which have already done that.

Immediate needs :: food, water and baby items to 1100 Bertrand in Lafayette, LA

A note about donations...my wife is at our church today and they are putting together buckets filled with cleaning supplies. Dish soap, household cleaner, laundry detergent, mop buckets, mops, air freshener, insect repellent, scrub bruches, anti bacterial soap and wipes, hand sanitizer, scouring pads, clothespins, clothes line, trash bags, dust maska, kitchen gloves and work gloves are going in each bucket.


I think these would make great donation items.

I've got lots of clothes, shoes, and non perishable items. Where would be the best place to send them
