This week I called my cousin Glorimar, who is currently living in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Her and I talked about how our family managed during the worst storm that Puerto Rico has seen, how puerto ricans have coped with the aftermath and the future of the island.

What can I do to help? Sponsor a family. Most monetary fundraisers such as ones run by celebrities go straight to the government. Send money directly to a family or send goods such as, bug spray, water, medication, batteries, feminine products, etc.
