yes. Though I am ok with going over a little on a case like this!! I have a connection... family of friend of a friend... anyways. So directly going to send things to them. Also hoping to get some hazmat ones b/c those are specifically zone 5-8 so that would be perfect since its zone 8.... I figure every little bit helps, they are even asking for things such as word puzzles, etc and i have plenty of that stuff at home... So I am pretty excited... I did a similar thing last year after the earthquake in Ecuador by shipping some care packages to florida which went on a shipping container full of supplies to help them.
Thanks for the input!! I encourage others to do the same! I have this address that i can dm to anyone who wants, they will distribute between their town also if they receive a lot of things, etc.
