Flood help

Flood help

For years, I have been collecting donated, mostly used, luggage for foster kids but also I have provided for many locations including flood (twice) and tornado victims.
With the flood so far, I have taken 4 carloads of luggage, duffles, backpacks and carry bags to Jackson, Hindman and Whitesburg/Hemphill.
I need more luggage, etc for flood victims as well as plastic containers.
If people have any of these that they are not using or know other folks that can donate such, I will be going back to eastern KY next week.
