Helping Those Impacted by Hurricane Milton – Part 2

Posted on October 22, 2024

Saturday night wrote about helping the people flooded out of the Standard Apartments in Clearwater – what Jennifer and I learned when we visited the Red Cross shelter at Light of Christ Catholic Church and First Christian Church of Clearwater.

We texted this out to friends and talked about it the next morning when we gathered with our church. By the time the gathering was over, we received more than $250 to help provide much needed toiletry items. (Thanks for being so generous!)

Buying and Delivering Toiletries

We drove straight to the Dollar Store around the corner and loaded up on toothbrushes, toothpaste, body wash, hand sanitizer, and deodorant.

From there we drove to First Christian Church of Clearwater to deliver the items purchased plus those brought to the our church gathering. They were warmly received!

Future Opportunities to Donate and Volunteer

While at First Christian, we talked with Kim and Maria who shared with us their future plans…

The donation site is moving to Iglesia Pentecostal Getsemani located at 21330 Drew St, Clearwater.

  • They will be receiving donations all week cash or check donations directly to the church.
  • They will give donations on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10am until 5pm (volunteers are welcome)

What is needed most?

  • hygiene cleaning supplies (soap, shampoo, toothpaste razors etc)
  • new pillows
  • new blankets
  • diapers of all sizes
  • water
  • food (non perishable)
  • new socks

PLEASE NO used items of any kind
Please no toys/school supplies/bikes/furniture

If you’d like to go and serve Thursday or Friday, let me know. Maybe I’ll cut out of work for a big and join you. 🙂
