I am in a tramatic state here knowing I financially can't do much. I feel for these people and their loss. But if we band together maybe we can make a difference.
On the Fox News website there is info on what is needed to help these people out. I would be willing to volunteer my time in gathering as much as I possibily can to donate to the victims.
*From Fox News* The following NEW items are desperately needed for the victims of the wildfires and the firefighters fighting them: Beef jerky, Cliff bars, Monster, Red Bull, 5 hour energy drinks, granola bars, individually wrapped crackers, small coolers, baggies (sandwich and gallon size), C batteries, flash lights, sunglasses, individual packages of Advil and Tylenol, nose spray, bandanas, pillows and bedding, teddy bears or small stuffed animals for the children, new underwear (all sizes for men, women, and children), diapers, pull ups, wipes, t-shirts, hand towels, Visine, cases of water and sports drinks, Vaseline, toothbrushes/toothpaste, toiletry items (toilet paper, hand soap, maxi pads, deodorant, shampoo, disposable razors), eyeglass cleaner kits, and goggles that wrap around the head.

If anyone would like to donate I would gladly come and pick up to drop off at the donation center. If you don't have time to go out and get things I am willing to do so for you. You can add to my card if you wish to do so. I will even scan the receipts and email to you so you can see what the money was spent on.
If you prefer you can click the link above to find out where the donations centers are do make the donations personally.
Being I live in the Sam Houston National Forest (Montgomery County) I feel the need to try and help out where I can. And pray that these fires don't make it to the east side of I-45.
Please contact me by phone or email if you would like to donate to the Wildfire Victims.
