Houston Food Bank sends aid to Florida in aftermath of Hurricane Ian

The food bank will be helping Feeding America Food Banks with trucks and supplies and will stay in the area for at least two weeks.

The supplies they are taking include ready-to-eat meals, disaster boxes, and water. Certified forklift drivers are going to support delivery and warehouse needs.

Crowdsource Rescue said its group of volunteers from Houston is assisting the hardest hit areas that had major flooding in Florida.

“Obviously, that area’s never going be the same for years,” said Matthew Marchetti, Crowdsource co-founder. “As of this morning, we’re even not quite sure the full extent of the damage there.”
