We are contacting our local officials and human services departments and encourage others to do the same...some questions to think about...Are there any air travelers who are stranded in our cities who are in need of shelter, food, clothing, transportation, obtaining meds, getting to a physician for ongoing med problems, wanting a ride to a church, or simply in need of a friend, etc? Anyone traveling with children who may have special needs or in need of anything from diapers and formula to entertainment for the children, highchairs, beds, etc...or even in need of time on a computer to email loved ones, in need of other children for their children to play with. Are local Traveler's aid Centers in need of anything... Food Banks? Is anyone needed to cook meals? Any other human needs? I realize many folks are flying on a budget and may not have the means for an extended layover.

does anyone know if there are animals at Airports and what their status is? Is anything needed there? Volunteers...foster homes...food...etc? Does anyone have an animal that was enroute and need assistance?

Our local hospital allows visitors both adults and children to come into the hospital to play board games with sick children. This may be a good time to make a visit...or even to visit the nursing homes...Children's homes...a lonely homebound person, etc. the stress this tragedy has created touches all...even those in the hospitals, nursing homes...etc...they may appreciate a diversion...someone to play cards with, someone to talk to, or simply a puzzle to concentrate on...If you are unable to get out, maybe you can contact someone who could deliver old books, puzzles, or games you have to offer...Every person in this country has something to give to those in need. Make some phone calls and find out where you are needed. We've offered our prayers and continue to do so...we've given money and blood, and now we can give our time and a piece of ourselves to touch another's life.
