Steemit Harvey Relief Fund Official Update (Danny Sessoms & TheCryptoShow forge partnership with @HarveyReliefFund, Discord created for Steemians Affected, and Contingency efforts)
9/3/2017
Danny Sessoms and The Crypto Show
Some of you are aware that this idea was inspired by the work of Danny Sessoms of The Crypto Show who raised $50,000 USD worth of cryptocurrency in 24 hours for Harvey relief efforts. I had been in contact with him since Wednesday, 8/30/2017. We finally got to settle down and talk for a bit. After a brief liberty-minded conversation, we started to discuss our relief efforts and how we could utilize crypto to help people immediately. The end result is that we have decided to partner up our efforts and expand our network of influence. There are shelters in Austin and Dallas where the people aren't receiving as much assistance as the people sheltered in the impact zone. In Houston, the Jewish community has a shortage of kosher foods and the Muslim community has a shortage of halal foods. Everybody is being helped, thanks to the crypto movement. This new partnership expands our reach and adds a layer of accountability. Let's keep it crypto.
@HarveyReliefFund Discord Channel
We called to check up on @hammockhouse who caught the tail end of the storm in Port Arthur, Tx. It turned out that they took on water in their home but didn't assume significant damage. I told them about the efforts of the @HarveyReleifFund and they suggested also helping steemians that has truly been affected by the hurricane. @HarveyReleifFund has created a discord channel to allow steemains to reach out to us directly. If you have been directly or personally affected by the storm, we would like to document your story on steemit and all SBD will be donated to that user. There is also a section for post-promotions related to hurricane harvey stories. We also took the liberty of adding a section for the sharing of practical information such as, dealing with landlords, safety/cleanup, acquiring federal and non-federal assistance etc.. Any and all helpful information is needed, original steemit content is encouraged.
Contingency Plans
This section is important for clarity. @VirtualGrowth encouraged me to be as clear as possible when accepting donations and @MrWang pointed out that Rockport isn't accepting anymore material donations. That made me think that we must have contingency plans in place. We are driving to Port Arthur, TX tomorrow to cook hot meals for the people in the shelters and assist with the removal of heavy waste. Partnering with Danny Sessoms opens doors for more opportunities to help. The use of the funds are NOT FLUID. We will be helping people directly impacted by hurricane Harvey whether they are in Rockport, TX or Lake Charles, LA and it will be documented on steemit.
A special thanks for the unwavering support in no particular order

This is great news on the partnership with Danny Sessoms on relief efforts. I wish I could be there to assist as well but will do what I can to spread the word and help with donations.
Thank you and to all those that are apart of this initiative and feel free to contact me if there's anything else I can help with.
Good Effort!

Hey there Steemians, sorry that we are so late checking in with this thread. As you might imagine, we haven't had much "free time" to SLEEP; much less spend time online!
As @harveyrelifefund (@xtraordinarypilot) said, WE personally had minimal damage to our home. A minor-miracle considering that this area received 3 times the ANNUAL rainfall total in less than a WEEK! But 10,000s around us were not so lucky, including several in our family.
Every waking hour for the last two weeks (or is it three?, I haven't slept) has been used WORKING! Filling sandbags, manning drain pumps, boat rescues, truck rescues, moving people to-and-from shelters, cooking for 100s daily, towing flooded cars of the road, carpet tear outs, sheetrock tear outs,animal rescues, animal relocation (read snakes/gators), MOLD treatments. . . (deep breath)
But, the "real" work has just really just begun.
Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the continued support.
Great men. Keep doing it
Am new to Steem, but will donate when I have something to donate...this is a great idea!
As an emergency management professional, can I suggest that you make your donations using cash instead of material? Many organizations have established purchasing partnerships that can double, triple, or quadruple the buying power of your dollar. Sending cash instead of things also means that volunteer efforts can go directly to helping out those who are impacted instead of trying to sort, catalogue, store, and distribute supplies that may or may not be needed.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the sound advice.
follow me bro ♥
Alright! I've been thinking about getting connected with him. Well done, man!
We will be able to when this all slows down. I'll be back in Austin next week and we can all sit down.
Alright, Sounds Great!
