Hurricane Harvey has left countless people displaced, without access to food and water, lodging, or basic medical supplies. People across the country are coming together to help our friends and family in Texas during this time of crisis. Are you and your family looking for a way to help those affected by Harvey?
3 Ways to Help with Hurricane Harvey Relief
- Reach out to your local Monkey Joe’s! Many of our locations are collecting donations throughout the month of September, which will be donated to the Red Cross’s Hurricane Harvey support fund at the end of the month. Why donate at Monkey Joe’s? Kids have big hearts! It’s an opportunity to teach children the value of helping others, no matter how large or small your contribution. To thank you for your support and to lend some of our own, Monkey Joe’s will match any Hurricane Harvey donation you make this month.
- Donate items. Some Monkey Joe’s locations are also participating in additional relief efforts to help those affected by Hurricane Harvey. You can donate funds, non-perishable food, and other basic necessities like baby supplies and feminine products to our neighbors in Texas. You can also reach out to your local Red Cross and other charitable organizations to learn more about volunteering your time to helping those in need.
- Want to donate on a more local level? Support the Houston Food Bank, Food Bank of Corpus Christi, Houston SPCA, or the Houston Humane Society. Because these organizations are based in the affected area, they’re uniquely positioned to help those in need during the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey.
