Handling 'stuff" takes too many people/storage/time when the area is still in the rescuing people stage.
The flooding is massive, esp. around Houston.
blood donors are needed.
anyone in the area who has a flat bottom small boat for rescue is asked to call Houston Sheriff dept.

Twitter and Facebook have up to date latest info on needs.
