This week, individuals and organizations around the world are reaching out to provide support for those in Houston and the surrounding area impacted by Hurricane Harvey.

Below is a partial list of charitable organizations seeking donations and support to help them provide food, water, supplies, shelter, and medical attention to those affected.

Food Bank of Corpus Christi
South Texas Blood & Tissue Center  
Carter BloodCare
