A couple days ago there was a news segment about Operation Airdrop out of RDU. I thought what they are doing is great - flying in supplies to areas which have been cut off due to flooding. Currently, they plan to fly relief supplies until this Sunday.

The current requested donations per their facebook page: non-perishable items & baby formula. (please check their facebook page for updated info).

Here are some links/info:

• Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/319817688781393/
• Website of Organization that is coordinating this: https://triangleflorence.org/
• Location to personally drop off donation items: 1725 E International Dr, Morrisville, NC 27560

• Amazon Prime Now: Ship to: OPERATION AIR DROP RDU TAC AIR BUILDING, 1725 E INTERNATIONAL DR MORRISVILLE, NC 27560 (directly to the loading area in the airport ) (Use 10PRIMENOW for $10 off)

This information was gathered from their facebook page. I will be going tomorrow with my donation items and to volunteer.

I am not associated with the organization in any way.

For some reason I am unable to edit the original post.

Wanted to add - there seems to be some confusion about pickup from Morrisville Target. If you go this route, you may have to post on their facebook page so they know.

Thank you, OP, for helping! My sister, brother-in-law and niece have been working with this, and it's making such a huge difference. My sister lives in Wilmington, but considers Carolina Beach "home". Fortunately, they only had minor damages at their house. They've been staying in the Triangle and hope to get back next week. In the meantime, they've been working with this group.
