<!--break--><h2>How to help: Monetary Donations</h2>

<li><a href="https://www.samaritanspurse.org/disaster/hurricane-harvey/">The Samaritan's Purse Hurricane Relief Fund</a></li>
<li>The <a href="https://texasdiaperbank.networkforgood.com/projects/33717-change-a-life">Texas Diaper Bank</a> to help provide baby diapers for refugees</li>
<li>You can also offer your home or spaces for free for refugees (or look for a place for your family) on <a href="https://www.airbnb.co.uk/disaster/hurricaneharveyevacuees">Airbnb.com</a>.</li>
</ul><h2>How to help: Goods Donations</h2>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.grbhouston.com/george-r-brown-emergency-center/">The George R Brown Convention Center</a>, <a href="https://weather.com/storms/hurricane/news/houston-convention-center-hundreds-refuge-harvey">Toyota Center</a>, <a href="http://abc13.com/nrg-opens-its-doors-to-first-1000-evacuees/2357278/" target="_blank">NRG Center</a> and <a href="https://www.houstondynamo.com/post/2017/08/29/bbva-compass-stadium-collecting-private-donations-hurricane-harvey-relief-efforts">BBVA Compass Stadium</a> (the preferred drop off site) </strong>are taking all kinds of donations, from kids clothes, baby formula, and diapers, blankets, pillows, socks, adult clothes, and toiletries. They ask that you separate items in bags and mark them clearly, such as "socks, small women shirts, XL male pants, etc." Some of the items requested for donation include:</p>
<ul><li>Wheelchairs</li>
<li>Non-perishable food</li>
<li>Bottled water</li>
<li>Baby formula and diapers</li>
<li>Comfort kits -- (soap, shampoo, toothpaste)</li>
<li>Pillows and blankets</li>
<li>Hand sanitizer</li>
<li>Sweatsuits</li>
<li>Towels</li>
<li>L/XL clothing</li>
<li>Socks</li>
</ul><p>Also, check with your local churches or the list of local shelters from <strong><a href="http://abc13.com/weather/list-of-shelters-around-houston-area/2341032/">ABC 13</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.click2houston.com/news/american-red-cross-provides-list-of-houston-area-shelters">Click2Houston</a></strong>. <strong>Call before purchasing items or before showing up</strong>; each shelter's needs change throughout the day, and while they may have no more capacity for larger donations, they may need items like toys for children (to keep them occupied), hygiene items for women, etc.</p>
<p>It may not be the first thing that you think about when gathering donations, but people need clean underwear, too. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ufehouston" target="_blank"><strong>Undies for Everyone</strong></a> accepts donations and distributes to those in need.</p>
<h2>How to help: Volunteers needed </h2>
<p>Volunteer with the Red Cross at the George R Brown Convention Center, NRG Center and Toyota Center, but <strong><a href="http://www.redcross.org/volunteer-interest-form" target="_blank">first go here to register</a>.</strong> </p>
<h2>Getting Help: Local Houston Shelters</h2>
<p>If you have lost your home and are looking for a nearby shelter, <strong><a href="http://abc13.com/weather/list-of-shelters-around-houston-area/2341032/">ABC 13</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.click2houston.com/news/american-red-cross-provides-list-of-houston-area-shelters">Click2Houston</a></strong> have a very extensive list of shelters and it is being updated daily, including whether they also accept fur babies (pets).</p>
<p>The four major shelters are:</p>
<ul><li><a href="http://www.grbhouston.com/george-r-brown-emergency-center/">The George R Brown Convention Center</a>, 1001 Avenida De Las Americas, Houston, TX 77010</li>
<li><a href="https://weather.com/storms/hurricane/news/houston-convention-center-hundreds-refuge-harvey">Toyota Center</a>, 1510 Polk St, Houston, TX 77002</li>
<li><a href="http://abc13.com/nrg-opens-its-doors-to-first-1000-evacuees/2357278/">NRG Center</a>, 1 NRG Park, Houston, TX 77054</li>
<li><a href="http://abc13.com/religion/lakewood-church-begins-taking-in-evacuees/2354653/" target="_blank">Lakewood Church</a>, 3700 Southwest Fwy, Houston, TX 77027</li>
</ul><p>If you have been directly affected by Hurricane Harvey, call <strong>2-1-1</strong> or visit <a href="http://www.211.org"><strong>211.org</strong></a> for information on emergency shelters, food, and water. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints along with numerous others have a hotline available to submit work orders for specific need requests related to the damages and for cleanup efforts. These services include removing carpet, cutting down tree limbs, etc and are free of charge. By calling the hotline number (800-451-1954 or 844-965-1386), a volunteer will take down your information and then try to send a volunteer crew out to help.</p>
