Red River Zoo is taking exotic pets such as snakes, lizards, turtles, birds & rabbits.

The equine center at NDSU is taking horses...They'd like you to bring feed, & hay if at all possible.

DMF Red River Valley Flood Fund will match the first $25,000 donated.

Go to www.impactgiveback.org & search for DMF.

The money will go to the local Salvation Army, Red Cross, and First Link.

Hope everyone made it through this OK...If it's all right, I think I will " un-stick" this Thread.. and hope it never has to be put up again
I know the media just drops a story like this as soon as something else comes up...and I know that people are still struggling with the aftermath...Not everyone has forgotten you...

You may want to wait until the second crest has gone through, just in case.

Thanks to Students, It's in the Bag!
You can also get caps, magnets, buttons/pins, dog t-shirts, boxers, baby bibs, etc with the same sayings. Some items come in different colors.

1/3 - 1/2 the purchase price from any of these places goes to ImpactGiveBack and the money goes to Red Cross, Salvation Army, and FirstLink. Right now, there is a donor matching the first $25,000 given.

Done

Does anyone know if there are any flood related organizations that are collecting donations that are not money donations? For example: kids-adult clothes, toys, blankets and other items? I've been looking for a place like that to donate to but haven't had any luck. Thanks.

[3-Oaks]

I haven't heard of any yet, but only a few homes have been totally flooded. I"d say check with the Salvation Army, Red Cross, or First Link. Maybe the ImpactGiveBack website has a phone #, too. Any of these may have some ideas.

If you do find somewhere, could you post it here, please in case others need the info, too?

Thanks.

[g33kgrl]

Thanks, I will check those out. And yes, if I find anything I will post it here for others
