By Libby Hikind<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I look at the mass devastation in the Bahamas quickly realizing it could have easily been my family affected here in West Palm Beach. We were told the Category 5 hurricane was headed our way. I prepared my family, my property and my business as much as humanly possible and then I prayed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I am grateful, and I want to help\ngive back. I want to help others as my way of showing gratitude for having been\nspared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the death toll in the Bahamas currently standing at seven and expected to drastically rise. As well as with an estimated 13,000 homes and businesses affected by the storm on the Islands. There is a great need for help, whether it be resources or monetary. Although there are a number of drop off locations for donations already, there can\u2019t ever be too much help going on. We\u2019ve put together some proper ideas on how to do your part in assisting the victims of this natural disaster. I look at the mass devastation in the Bahamas and feel a need to help as I imagine you do too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what can your nonprofit organization do? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Set up a drop off location, collect supplies for daily living and contact shippers that are bringing supplies to the Island.<\/li>
  2. Energize the members of your organization to connect with Airbnb and become a host to foster surviving families.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cThank you, G-d, (or mother nature) for sparing my family and my property!<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
