Hurricane Harvey Update 9/1

An extra-special pizza delivery brings hope and relief to families marooned by Hurricane Harvey.

Pizza delivery to an inaccessible apartment complex

Ever had pizza delivered to you via a boat? Yesterday Rob Searing and another volunteer from the Southwestern District delivered more than 25 pizzas to an apartment complex. The buildings were not flooded but inaccessible by car.

Little Caesars donated the pizzas with the stipulation that they were for the kids who couldn’t go outside and play. The restaurant manager wanted them to have something fun, so he sent the pizzas with the understanding that the adults were only allowed to eat what the kids couldn’t finish.

Five men ferried by Rob to food and water.

In addition to delivering pizzas, Rob and the other volunteer picked up five guys from the same apartment complex to help them find food, groceries, and baby necessities for their families.

“We actually Facetimed their children while we motored down the flooded road—much to the amusement of all aboard,” says Rob.

How to Volunteer

Teams or individuals interested in volunteering in the Houston area for three to five days may contact the Southwestern District of the C&MA at [email protected]. Let them know your skills (including cleaning). Volunteers must be able to work in heat (around 90 degrees and 70-percent humidity) and wear task-appropriate attire.

Earlier teams will be involved in debris removal, sprayer cleaning, and disinfecting. Later teams will likely be involved in construction and remodeling.

Volunteer In Texas

Local churches in Texas need willing hands and feet to help rebuild their communities.
