The American Red Cross has placed boxes around campus (Student Center, Library, Liberal Arts, Technical Building) to collect relief items, or you can bring items directly to the Office of Students Life.
Items Most Needed:
Bottled Water
Food (include baby food)
Paper Towels
Toilet Paper
Hand Sanitizer
Personal Care Items
According to the Red Cross as of this moment at least 150 people need emergency shelter in Catoosa County and 200 in Dade County. These individuals have lost everything. Right now the best thing we can do is donate relief items. A member of the Red Cross will be coming to campus to pick-up the donated items through May 6. According to the Red Cross, please do not attempt to visit these areas and deliver relief items yourself. This could hinder rescue and relief efforts.
