The American Red Cross is mobilizing shelter workers, mobile feeding vans and supplies to provide relief to those affected by the fires.

Is this the time for us Floridians to assist others that are in need. The news services are reporting over 1 million individuals without home. Most lost everything to the wildfire.

We have experienced the damages of hurricanes and tornadoes and many fellow Americans provided assistance to our state and to our families.

If you feel that you can help follow the link to the Red Cross and donate. Please don't post any other link's. If you know of an agency that can help send a DM and I will research and post the site.

Your assistance is greatly appreciate.

Thank you Sunrico - for those of us in Florida who received so much help from other states, it's now our turn to reciprocate.

The situation in California is dire.

Here's what the Red Cross has on the way:

* 25,000 cots
* 50,000 blankets
* 50,000 pre-packaged meals
* 25,000 comfort kits filled with toiletry items
* 75 mobile feeding trucks and 2 Southern Baptist Kitchens
* 1000 shelter workers
