Babies in particular, are subject to hypothermia.

AERObridge will be flying donated items from Arizona:

Our mission is to assist in times of catastrophic emergency by coordinating donated aircraft to provide a powerful, immediate response to disaster. By matching aircraft with emergency response teams and critical supplies, we are able to provide a vital window of assistance to save lives and aid those in need.

All items must be to them by Tuesday night, November 6.

ITEMS REQUESTED: Flashlights with batteries Blankets or sleeping bags Warm clothing, jackets, gloves, etc. All items can be new or gently used

Drop Off Location: Cutter Aviation Phoenix Sky Harbor Int’l Airport 2802 E. Old Tower Road Phoenix, AZ 85034-6000

The easiest way to get there is south on 24th St., past Buckeye until you see the signs for Cutter Aviation, which is an eastbound turn off of 24th St. Use the Bay Door on the right, ring buzzer to go through.

The Red Cross is also taking financial donations.
