			<h1>Hurricane Harvey is wreaking havoc, but there are ways for all of us to help</h1>
<p>Every once in a while, a storm lives up to the hype. Hurricane Harvey is one of those storms, slamming into Texas on Friday night and leaving thousands in danger. We&#8217;ve compiled a list of resources you can use if you want to help.</p>
