Once again SABOMA Members have come through in a big way to help the victims of Hurricane Ike. SABOMA Member, David Malley has been working hard to deliver all the items donated by SABOMA members. A lot of managers have contacted David and Pam Malley asking about starting a building drive. David is coming home today. David and Pam will be going back next week. They can not go this weekend because all access has been stopped for clean up. If managers are interested in doing a building drive, David will rent a u-haul late next week and pick up donated items. Water is NOT needed as FEMA has provided water and MRE's.

These are items that are desperately needed:

Clothing
Toiletries
Paper Towels
Soy Formula
Diapers (not tons-just one or two babies there)
Adult diapers (not tons-just a few elderly left)
Canned goods with hand can openers or snap tops
Bread
Assorted non- perishable snack items canned fruit or fruit cups
Over the counter meds...especially Tylenol, Alleve, Advil, etc.

Just e-mail David at twoguyesent@yahoo.com and let the Malley's know if you have items to pick up at your building.

Way to go SABOMA members! Thank you to David & Pam Malley and to all who have supported this effort to help Hurricane Ike survivors.
