Address for donations

Material things needed right now (11/5/05):
- Tents (full family size or individual, preferably family size)
- Warm clothes
- Blankets

- Wal-Mart gift cards
- Visa debit cards
These cards are really good to send, because Bethel uses them to buy any specific needs that come directly from hurricane victims. They are also really good to have, because they provide more business for the economy. Bethel does not hand out any gift cards in order to help reduce any chance of abusing them, but instead uses them to buy the item requested.

Items that the volunteers should bring for themselves:
Tools to work with (Hammer, crow-bar, Heavy-duty masks to block mold, etc.)
Personal items, and, it's not a requirement right now, but maybe a little extra money to help Bethel with food expenses.

Sending money or mailing gift cards:
Bethel Lutheran Church
2521 Pass Road
