Just talked to Mark. He was coming back from 3rd drop of the day and they have one more to do. He estimates 2000 red cross volunteers that he has seen. There is a lot of money being used and more needed to help with this massive operation.
He said that he will be glad when the election is over so that politics can get out of the way. Yesterday they fed 1,200 meals out of the ERV going just as hard as they could for 4 hours. One meal at a time going to people on the street. He has taken food to a National guard armory building where military men came out and helped unload. They have seen a fire and had police officers help them close to buildings to unload.
Mark sounds real good. I think he is happiest when he is helping some one. This is what we trained for and I am very proud of him. Next time I hope to be there with him now that he has experience and can show me what to do. Keep praying and send money if you can. I noticed today that the TV channel 27 is matching donations given to red cross up to three million dollars. Every little bit helps.
