Reply #12: the "Floods2008" website - how to help, donations, etc. [View All]

I just got this off the Iowa forum and checked it out. It is a great site for those who are able to help either through volunteering, donating items they need or if you can, money. They are going to need all the help they can get and it would be good if DU could set up a donation site too?

Also, if you haven't got a clue as to what it looks like in Cedar Rapids, this video is what you should watch. Bear in mind that the water has gone down about 4 ft. You can see the watermarks. It's a tour of the neighborhoods of Cedar Rapids, the 2nd largest city in Iowa.
