What we're doing about it:
* The Puerto Rico National Guard has dispatched 1,122 troops to the disaster area, to include a Military Police battalion (minus a company that's deployed elsewhere), 22 water purification specialists and five C-130 airplanes.
* The Puerto Rico State Emergency Management Office is sending 60 disaster recovery specialists to MS.
* The following island universities will grant late admissions to NO area students displaced by the storm so they can complete their semester: Inter-American University of Puerto Rico, The University of Puerto Rico, Sacred Heart University, Pontifical Catholic University, Metropolitan University and Turabo College. They're saying they will try and comp it.
* Puerto Rico residents stranded on the mainland by the storm may call toll free at 1-866-280-4357 for assistance.
* The company I work for has adopted the Southern Baptist Disaster Relief organization and have raise $1,500.00+ so far, mainly from employees and company matching funds (we're not a big company).
Thank you for reporting the valuable and comprehensive relief efforts from Puerto Rico.
You can be sure that the So. Baptist will use it wisely. They have to answer to God.
