Devastation in the South

This is very sad and difficult time for many cities in the South from the tornadoes which left hundreds of people dead and injured...and still, there are so many people missing. There are of course many cities asking for donations and requesting certain items that they may need more of. Last weekend, my mother and I went to the place where they were taking donations for the city of Phil Campbell who were (at that time) saying there was a great need for sunscreen, socks, and underwear (men- women- and children), but more recently, there are requests for donations of radios with batteries but I still might check first to see what items they need the most because it might change daily.

Some of us may be unsure what exactly we can do or what we should donate, but I ran across something a few of my friends have been posting on Facebook which are really awesome t-shirts that represent “Sweet Home Alabama.” They are $15 dollars and ALL proceeds from the sales of the shirt will go towards helping those in need. I myself haven’t bought one yet, but I just recently saw this post. This is what the shirts look like, and below is the contact info. of the designer's website.
