Re: Hurricane Ike

FYI, pretty much all the food banks in Texas need additional donations of food due to the large numbers of evacuees they are serving. Three in particular are: Austin Food Bank’s resources are depleted and they are in urgent need of donations (money; pop-top canned meats, peanut butter; shampoo, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products). San Antonio Food Bank needs money or pasta, canned meat, rice, beans, cereal & individually-wrapped snacks. It appears the Houston Food Bank would most appreciate monetary donations at this time so they can purchase the truckloads of donation items required quickly to distribute to folks in need.

I checked, and the Dallas (North Texas Food Bank) is *NOT* in need of donations at this time though that may of course change.
