We have all heard of the devastation happening in Texas and now in some areas of Louisiana are getting pounded and flooded. If you want to help, but don’t have the cash to donate, you can help in other ways. Below is the Hurricane Harvey Donation Supplies List of items they are going to need. If you can help in this way, please do so. Please take the time to check to see which church or organization in your area is accepting the donations and if they are accepting clothes, toys and/or books.
In Louisiana I know my area (Metairie) students and volunteers have come together at St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church to collect and organize supplies for Harvey victims. Drop off the items at 105 Bonnabel Boulevard in Metairie. Please drop off items to the church between 8:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Tuesday, Aug. 29 to Thursday, Aug. 31 and Tuesday, Sept. 5 until Thursday, Sept. 7.
Anyone wishing to make a financial donation, can either mail it to St. Catherine of Siena (105 Bonnabel Blvd., Metairie, LA 70005) with the memo “Hurricane Relief” or mail it to the Archdiocese of New Orleans (Attn: Archbishop Aymond, 7887 Walmsley Ave, New Orleans, LA 70125) with the memo “Hurricane Relief.”

I’m a Gramma to a beautiful, funny, smart little girl who was born in July of 2014. She’s the joy of my family and I’m so very proud to be a gramma (an alternate spelling for grandma)! I am a coffee, music, movie and outdoor lover! I love festivals and concerts. Spending time with my family is the best time in my life. I love my blogging job and all it has given me.
