I just wanted to add to Ela's post. Chere and I were in touch regularly last week. Larry had spent quite a bit of money for fuel for the planes to take them to SC out of harms way. These are not planes for a hobby, they are Chere and Larry's livelihood, as they operate a flight school. Chere was worried about her ferrets having food. She hadn't eaten herself in a couple of days. She was glad to see the National Guard show up with MRE's. But she was more interested in making sure her ferrets had food. Her home had serious damage. I offered her supplies, and she asked instead that I call another shelter just north of me to give them the supplies. I offered her a generator, but regretfully it wasn't going to be able to provide her the type of power that she needed to cool her home for the ferrets. She asked me to instead offer it to another shelter. She was thinking of everyone but herself. That's the type of person she is. Please if you can, send her $1 via PayPal. Give up your morning Starbucks and send it to her. She has done so much for the ferret community, and never has asked for anything in return. Now she is desperately in need.
