Help Donate & Volunteer To Assist Hurricane Harvey Victims

Harvey is bringing Houston, “The worst flooding in US History”, according to the weather channel.

Over two feet of rain with that much or more to come. It is catastrophic. Thousands are awaiting water rescue and thousands more likely over next few days. This on top of landfall as Category 4 Hurricane devastated Rockport and Port Aransas. Still tornado warnings as well.

This is looking to be near Katrina in scope and length of recovery.

Please PRAY for safety of those who will be in danger for the days to come, for first responders and emergency workers, and for wisdom on how to respond with resources to do so. The need is so great.

Please GIVE, we anticipate our first response will be through cooking teams (serving up to 20,000 hot meals a day) and distribution of water.

Teams will be needed soon, but not safe quite yet. If available in next month to bring a team please sign up. If have specific skills (long term disaster lead, photography, construction, corporate donation of supplies, etc.) that could be utilized please email: info@citiimpact.org

CitiIMPACT has warehouses secured throughout Houston and Corpus Christi.
