  Kelly J. asked:

  Does anyone know of a reputable organization where you can "adopt" a Harvey family? Watching the news tonight I saw a story of a woman about to give birth who now has nothing & it made me wonder if there's a place where you can meet specific needs.

  

  Juan C. replied:

  Try Samaritan's Purse International Relief. Find out more by visiting http://www.samaritanspurse.org They're helping in the area and may have more information on families with specific needs.

  Ash W. asked:

  Are there any semi truck drivers in Fairbanks headed to Texas? Maybe we could donate things that the families are in need of & the truck driver can take them? Texas was home for the last 10 years & it's really hard to see all that Houston is going through. Any ideas?

  dav00 asked:

  Just moved to the USA for college and I need cheap health insurance I am a US Citizen, but have been living in Australia. My college requires proof of health insurance for me to attend. I've researched some insurance options, but only just moved out so my knowledge on the subject is not great. I've had people recommend Samaritan purse, and I checked with my college to see if they'll accept this, which they do. I will be working as much as possible but I doubt I'll be pulling in much income, so the cheaper the better. I am currently attempting to sign up for healthcare, but am still not too sure if this is actually health insurance or just government coverage. Will my college accept either? I realise these are pretty stupid questions so go easy on me, thanks.

  Christa G. asked:

  Question.... What charity would you recommend to sponsor a child in another country? Would like to find one that does not have a huge payoff to administrators and would allow us to send packages/letters to the child. Suggestions?

  

  Kristina W. replied:

  We did this through church. You can send it online and track your package if you would like. The website is great and has videos of the children getting their gifts. http://www.samaritanspurse.org/.../operation-christmas.../

  Ashley S. asked:

  Need some volunteer ideas! We are already signed up to help at Access Soup Kitchen, Franklin County Women's Shelter, and Open Hands in Anderson County. Does anyone know of any other places who need help? Thanks!

  

  Chelsea A. replied:

  Was volunteering at Open Hands last night, met some nice people. I also read an article that said not a lot of people are buying gifts for the Angel Trees... Just a thought? If you're wanting to go outside of the community maybe visit www.samaritanspurse.org - you can pack shoeboxes to send to kids internationally.
