We talked about flood this week. We all read and heard so many stories from our neighbor Thailand about the flood. We talked about the danger and sometimes for kids, fun, of a flood. We also have a listener reported directly from Bangkok, and shared some pictures too. Obviously we can’t omit the disaster that a big flood can cause.
One of listener’s friends who is a St John’s ambulance member shared this link on Facebook asking for donation in the form of bottled water.
If you know of organizations who would take monetary donations, please do so, but beware of scams. Just check carefully and use your own judgement.
