Here on the Gulf Coast people are pulling together to help in any way they can.
Anything from water, toilet paper, and diapers. A sign is displayed on the outside of the school that details all the items they’re collecting.Ronan says this is just one way they wanted to show their support to these victims.
“You know we have a tight-knit community when things like this happen. We come together,” Ronan said. “I’ve lived here 40 years and I see it again and again and again. It is one of the things when we have a crisis we all come together.” Hours before Hurricane Ian barreled through, “Keeping the Faith Bible Club” students were already discussing ideas.
“They came in Wednesday morning for their Wednesday meeting and just really, everybody engaged on what we could do to help all of the people that were going to suffer a big huge hurricane,” she said. Not wasting any time posters went up around the school immediately, with donations already flowing in.“It’s important to us for two reasons. We have suffered the kinds of losses and we feel that pain. And it’s always one of those ways that we can give back,” Ronan said. “And two we have folks that are at school that have relatives there.”She asks that anyone who would like to have something taken as well, drop it off at the school in the next few days.Download the FOX10 Weather App.
