Galveston, TX

Hurricane Ike

We were privileged to be among the first non-relief organizations granted access into Galveston after Hurricane Ike to offer assistance. By this time, a fleet of vans had been added to the 32 washers and dryers aboard the Tide Loads of Hope truck, enabling an additional service: the transportation of clothing to and from local laundromats.
