[VIDEO BELOW] The truck will be leaving from Lake Terrace at 7 PM. This event was coordinated with Chabad in Houston.
UPDATE: The truck was initially to stop in Crown Heights, but the plan is now for it to go directly to Texas.
Another truck will be filling up tomorrow.
UPDATE: 12:30 PM: Coordinators tell TLS that due to the overwhelming response, a second truck is on the way to Lake Terrace.
UPDATE: Due to overwhelming reponse, donations for truck are full. Desperate funds still needed to make this happen. https://t.co/Ympu5Fiw0Z

BH the first truck is filling up nicely . We are working on another truck for those that can’t make it please donate. The cost of the rental before gas and expenses is $1500 we only have about $1000 for the first truck. This is really being Mom and Popped and all donations go a very long distance .
Mi K’amcha Yisroel!
Kol Hakovod to the organizers & donors!
True Chesed!
Its not even normal whats going on at the drop off center! There are literally pallets of food, amenities and clothing being dropped off here. From pallets of water to toothbrushes. People opening their hearts and wallets. I’m not even talking about the store owners which are literally donating their produce!!
I’m at a loss of words upon seeing the generosity of this town!!!
You want to be inspired? Drive over to Lake Terrace and be ready to have you mind blown! God bless all the selfless volunteers and all the generous donors!!
so truck is there for a couple of hours?
To name a few, huge thanks to Mr Dubovik at 4 Wheels for opening at midnight last night to send the truck! NPGS, EVERGREEN, AVACARE Medical Supplies, Watchung Water, and many other local stores have been sending pallets of goods!!!! Avromi Grunhouse working around the clock arranging the trucks! All the volunteers on site are awesome!!! This was all arranged in a flash at 11 last night!!!
Hakadosh Baruch Hu should send the final Geula, but until that time, Mendy and all the other people involved in feeling the tzaar of Houston should be zoche to be able to keep helping and giving.
Mi Ki’Amcha Yisroel!!!!
