We shot this vid yesterday, which is rough- and it does NOT do justice to the reality of what is really happening here...the purpose of this video is so people can see how/what, not only how the people of LaPlace are dealing with right now -but 1,000 of families through LA and MS - The larger organization and YES this includes the Red Cross (I am tired of being politically correct when talking about the group- they pulled out 4days ago!) and ANYONE you talk to in the community ALL want to know what they did here with the MILLIONS they raised...??? FACT IS, NO aid reached these communities- ZERO! -and now that the media and large groups packed up and left town these people are not only on their own but they are all wondering what the HELL happened to the aid and donation raised on their behalf??? Good question.... and more if US should be asking it! They have lost EVERYTHING - I realize we got elections and the mess we are in over seas but this is happening right now in our country and it BS that millions have been raised yet VERY little has been done- I very rarely ask on FB for donations or help but I am hoping this platform is going to serve a purpose here- We/they need help! The video I think speaks for itself... RIGHT NOW we are looking for donations as well as people willing to volunteer their services, people to call stores like Walmart, target, home depot etc...Our goal right now is to help with debree removal, and bring in either donated items of or buy the product here locally- as of now we are looking for gloves, masks, contractor bags, bleach, product that kills mold spores-(MoldX)- Demolition supplies, hammers, ladders, pry bars etc - We are also reaching out to church groups or contracting companies that would be willing to donate their time to help the community clear out/clean out/rebuild their homes- ANYONE can contact me via email- or here on fb-
again, this video was shot yesterday...
thanks-
