From a press release: 

By now all of you have likely seen the horrific pictures and heard the news regarding the devastating level of flooding that has taken place in neighboring West Virginia. At last count, at least two dozen people have lost their lives and the governor has declared State of Emergency in nearly 50 counties. Many folks have lost not only their homes, but everything they possessed in this world.

• Non-perishables (i.e. crackers, jelly, peanut butter, etc.)
• Cleaning supplies (including buckets)
