Hello Membership,
Anyone interested in volunteering to go to Puerto Rico, please go to this website and sign up. Flights and accommodations will be arranged and covered. You will only be responsible for having the time off to go. It is a week-long commitment. If you have family in need of assistance, you would be able to help as well as countless other families affected by the hurricane.
