Funds are now going to the Bham chapter of the Red Cross. Please note - I set this up on the fly and have not coordinated with the Red Cross. This cause is currently not sanctioned by or in conjunction with the Red Cross. I have reached out to local officials but haven't heard anything back yet.
Update: American RC is now aware of this effort and is good with it (though we're not official). Note that you can also text REDCROSS to 90999.
1. 100% of funds contributed will be given to American Red Cross
