I took a trip there from St. Louis Saturday with some friends. If you can gather some things, people could use the help.
If dropping items at a designated drop zone for victims, cleaning supplies, socks, and underwear are in short supply.
If donating items to the volunteers, energy/sport drinks, sunscreen, chapstick, and gloves are appriciated.
If you'd like to make a much needed monitary contribution, the most direct link is http://www.RebuildJoplin.org
Here is a video of our trip. I've never seen anything like it. Do chip in if you can.

Feel free to pass this video along. These folks will be rebuilding for many years to come...
