Hey y'all! This is my first year at ACU and I'm from south Houston. One of my friends back home is doing this fundraiser to help support families who were effected by the storm.
I was lucky enough to only have my garage flooded but I have many friends around the corner who were evacuated by helicopter and boats due to high flooding in their houses.
Even if you can't buy a shirt or even donate, please share so we can help Houston from Abilene
God Bless
