Tornadoes raved multiple counties across Oklahoma two days in a row.
Here are a few ways to help the tornado victims:

- The Salvation Army will have a truck at KFOR-TV taking donations starting 10 a.m. Tuesday.
444 E. Britton Rd.
Oklahoma City, OK 73114
NO CLOTHES PLEASE
Donate: Text “storm” to 80888 to make a $10 donation.

- The Red Cross said the best way to assist families is to make a donation to www.redcross.org/okc or www.redcross.org or texting REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation.
Red Cross shelter information

Safeandwell.org is the Red Cross site where you can register yourself as safe, or search for friends and family members.
Call 211 for non-emergency services and information.

GOOGLE: Okla. tornado crisis map
Lost animals: If you find displaced animals, you can take them to the Animal Resource Center at 7949 S. I-35 Service Rd. (405) 604-2892. They are also offering displaced people shelter for the night as well.

Typically the money goes into the general fund for something. Not necessarily for THIS disaster. uppityperson May 2013 #1
