During that 6 months I make a trip east to Ontario, New York and Pennsylvania to visit family and friends. I was brought to this site by a tweet on Twitter and think that when I pass thru there this summer I'd like to stop by with a box of those food items on the list. I am going right thru so may as well stop. This will be in early June. And, Regina I hope everything will be OK soon but if you are along the way I could stop the stuff by you. E-mail aliceprez@aol.com privately then I will be sure to get it. I feel so fortunate that so far I have not had any problems, and would like to help those who have. We have food banks here too, obviously and when my emergency supply of canned foods are going to expire in a month or so I'll take them to the food bank and then re-stock. This is a good way to prepare for an emergency *and* help others so I suggest that to any who can do that. I live in the States, but spend 6 months April-October in Canada.

Therefore I am wondering if you need any help with doing this. I can cook it at my home and deliver it to you on Xmas Eve. Hope I can help somehow, I am sure u have many hands to help serve etc on Xmas Eve but if not let me know.

Actually the best time to volunteer is now - most homeless charities are swamped with volunteer requests at Christmas, but they are in need year round - Please visit http://Project417.com and drop us an email there, and I can refer you to more volunteer opportunities. Thanks again, Andy: Follow us on Twitter @canayjun and @project417 Thanks Priscilla,

I think this also shows the need to have internet access since there are many sites that link resource information about available services for people in need of emergency assistance.
