NEW URGENT NEEDS FOR BILOXI AREA

We are getting organized for our Biloxi location. Since their church building has to be tore down,
we have come across some additional needs so I'm hoping some of you can help or know of someone who can.
There is such a huge need in Biloxi. They seem to have become the "forgotten city". We will be setting up relief efforts in a park close to the Division St. Church of Christ. Just across the street from the park are families living outside their houses under tarps. They don't even have tents! They are cooking on small grills for entire neighborhoods. This is 4-1/2 months after the hurricane! If you can help with these items or funds to purchase them it is greatly appreciated!!

1. We are in need of at least 2 large commerical size tents in which to distribute supplies.

2. 1-2 additional semi trailers to store supplies.

3. RV's donated to house volunteers.

4. Mobile Kitchen Unit/s

5. (2) 24' - 30' enclosed trailers to build portable showers and laundry facilities.

6. 20' - 24' flatbed trailer (a very heavy duty one) to haul drywall and shingles.




And as always..........we are in desperate need of volunteers for all of our locations!
