Houston update from Carey Thorne's boat - 08/30/17 03:49 PM
I know there are several guides and people down there helping the flood victims. So PLEASE add to this thread.
I am just giving an update from Carey , his wife and Cody Waddle from the info they are sending me when they can get coverage. Other fellow fishermen like Mike B Flounder , Tim Tex EP , Fishboy Frank, Seapro Todd and other lavon and hubbard guys are also helping in any way they can. This is just an update. and PLEASE add to this thread with any other info you would like. God bless the people helping and the victims as well.
How you can help volunteers for Houston flood victims directly.
My friend Carey and his wife Sarah and friend Cody have been down there for two days on the front lines, sleeping in their truck and helping pluck families from their flooded homes.
They are doing this mostly on their own expense even though some friend's and PayPal support has come in already.
Carey Thorn is a fishing guide in the Dallas area and he has the right style of boat (shallow draft, aluminum) for driving in flooded neighborhoods and city streets.
However, there are many hazards and he already has a damaged propeller and trailer which will have to be repaired for his livelihood. Also, since he is not guiding, Carey is without his normal income.
If you would like to help out a little bit or a lot for someone is there now volunteering, you can contribute to their PayPal account.
PayPal
Thorn_alex@yahoo.com
When using the PayPal option “sending to a friend” there are no fees. Even 5 or 10 dollars would be welcome. If there is any left over, Sarah will use it to purchase diapers or food for the stranded families there.
Thanks!
There are a lot of rains soaked people being rescued.
