On this week's episode we start with an appeal to donate to the Red Cross to help out victims of Hurricane Harvey. So I wanted to start this post that way too. Here's the Red Cross' logo and a link:
 |
| Please note that the Red Cross in no way sponsors or endorses this blog or podcast. |
Or, as of the date of publishing, you can text the word "HARVEY" to 90999 to donate $10, straight from your phone bill. Or if you are led to give to a smaller organization with less overhead, please do that and don't look back. Give give give to the group you think will help the most. I gave to the Red Cross because they're a trusted name and a good place to start. I have a personal friend in Houston who has a non-profit organization at
http://the25group.org/harvey/ and they do good work, too. Please consider donating to them, if you're looking for a smaller, locally based group whom I personally know and trust.
Now...here's the podcast!
