Its a wonderful life- donations for fire victims

AS of 2 :00pm today the relief efforts out of the auditorium near Telmex building were humming and seemingly well organized, people bringing in bags of everything you can imagine and a decent line of folks donating cash to DIF. DIF seemed to be dutifully recording names, addresses and phone # of those who gave cash.

None of these comments seek to minimize the horrific loss the victims have suffered. Temporary housing is going to be a big need. I would imagine even a shipping container of building tarps would help.

The state government has donated a refrigerator, queen-size bed and galvanized roofing to each homeless family.

WOW That's big!

Where will they put them?

no matter how humble their former homes may have been, most victims of disaster want to rebuild. For most its, all they have. A tarp stretched between some poles while new walls and roofs are being built may be an option that many would choose over being housed indefinitely in the relief center
