Pretty obvious that most people here are poor and/or selfish.

$100 worth of diapers

$100 worth of baby formula

Don't donate money it's too easy to mismanage, donate items.

Preferably for children since they aren't capable of preparing for disasters like this.

Could make an argument not to donate items either, as about 60% of the items donated never get used, either because it's something they received way more of than they needed, or it's something they didn't really need at all, or it's something that was already purchased in bulk.

True, money has the downside of potentially being mismanaged, but it has the upside of getting them what they need exactly when they need it. They don't need to have large groups of volunteers spending countless hours sorting through donations to get what they need (and getting rid of what they don't), they just go out and get it.

Straight cash is basically the best thing to give if you want to donate. Just make sure you're giving it to a reputable organization.

I guess but I'd rather my $200 go to helping one kid have a clean diaper and a full bottle than some rich asshole getting richer.

Even if the other $198 dollars is wasted sitting in a storage unit that is paid for with the cash other people donated

Gave to the whatever fund the Houston Mayor had set up and then I gave some to the local Humane society.

Hurricane Harvey was manipulated by HAARP. It wasn't even supposed to hit Houston.

Can't donate money to help others when you hardly make enough to help yourself, In other words, nope, we're poor as shit.

If we had spare money laying around, then I probably would've donated.......to TFS' charity stream, just to add onto the $28,000 they made to help.....

Why would I want to donate money to a hurricane? Hasn't that hurricane caused enough problems without needing donations?

Screw charity. Man, you know, I pledged $50 to stop diabetes, and then I find out that there's still diabetes. And then I'm like, "What?!" Man, talk about a rip-off.

It's called a ransom.

Nope. If I donated to every natural disaster I'd be forever donating.
