The Falcons and Ravens have supported New Orleans efforts
The damage caused by Hurricane Ida is beginning to come into focus, as the storm continues along its path. Southeastern Louisiana, including New Orleans, is facing serious strain on its power grids and rescue efforts are ongoing.
If you would like to help hurricane relief efforts on the Gulf Coast, Louisiana resident and New Orleans Saints fan Allen Keller (@AllenK_81) is putting together a collection to provide money and supplies to those affected by Ida. Keller asks that anyone who is going to donate reads through the following thread to ensure efforts are going to the right place.
People need help. People need money. People need supplies.
Several people have reached out needing help, many displaced with little money. We’re going to help. Please read our thread of work first.
