Portrait of a Disaster

It looks like first-hand accounts of the 2009 southern West Virginia flood are starting to find their way online. I ran across a few videos on YouTube when I was checking on our own video (which you can find via our YouTube channel: youtube.com/wefeedpeople).

Mark your calendars: this Wednesday, May 20, we are once again partnering with the wonderful folks at WCHS-TV to have one more big flood relief drive. We are still ironing out all of the details, but the early plan calls for a huge day-long event, with live broadcasts throughout the day, telephones set up to take cash donations and as many of our signature, bright-green WeFeedPeople.com trucks as we can fill up. We'll have more details as soon as we have them.

In the meantime, here are some videos I ran across on YouTube. Now, our folks who have been to Mingo County say there is no way to describe the level of destruction down there, but perhaps these shots will give you a bit of an idea of what these communities are facing.

Keep praying. Keep giving. Keep loving.
