Just one word of advice: BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHERE YOU DONATE. Stick with charities you know and trust. Don't fall for suspicious email solicitations. And DON'T SEND GOODS! The roads are not passable and no one needs piles of marginal goods.

If you live in an area that is susceptible to natural disaster, have you checked your emergency kit? Do you have one? Has it been touched in years? This is a good time to do those simple things that can make a difference.
