Houstonians know the troubles of hurricane suffering all too well, so if you're looking for ways to help Hurricane Ida victims, look no further.
Houston Food Bank is poised and ready to help relief efforts in Louisiana as/when needed. Houston Food Bank urgently needs volunteers to help them build more disaster boxes! Individuals or groups can register online and find shifts that work for them: www.houstonfoodbank.org/volunteer. There are morning, afternoon and evenings shifts with openings this week.
Following one of the strongest storms to ever hit Louisiana, the TEGNA stations in Texas - WFAA, KHOU, KENS, KVUE, KCEN, KAGS, KYTX, KIII, KBMT, KJAC, KWES, KXVA and KIDY - will join forces for Texas Cares: Hurricane Ida Relief, a statewide effort to help our neighbors in Louisiana affected by Hurricane Ida.
