As a former Houstonian, I have been grieving with my friends and family that have lost everything to Hurricane Harvey.
As the flood waters rose last week, panicked friends posted pleas for help on social media with their addresses.
“Can someone please get word out to come get me and my children? This is my address.”
“We have moved upstairs. The first floor is flooded and it’s still raining!”
“What do I do? Do I leave my dogs behind?”
I worried that it might be the last time I’d hear from some of them.
One family member lost long-time coworker Coach Jordan of Clear Creek High School – the school district I had lived in.
As I’ve sat high and dry in the Texas Hill Country while recovery efforts continue, I’ve asked myself over and over: “How can I make a difference?”
Then I realized that I can make a difference to the hurricane victims in Texas!
I’m offering proceeds from sales of the All-Access Pass for the Adoption HEART Conference to go toward hurricane relief.

Hurricane Relief Fundraiser GOAL: 100,000 training pants
Right now, displaced families have a huge need for disposable training underwear. Potty training is next to impossible in the overcrowded emergency shelters. Plus, children that are stressed out such as this may revert back to wetting themselves.
The Texas Diaper Bank is a 501 c3 nonprofit established in 1997 to provide diapers for families in crisis. They have set up a special fund going directly to Hurricane Harvey victims.
We’ve set a goal of 100,000 training pants to help these weary families!!!
