I called Operation USA today and spoke to someone in their warehouse. I asked what is going on with their relief since the infrastructure is a total loss in PR. Operation USA has a staff on the ground in PR. And they have doctors. Some doctors in Pheonix have chartered a plane and they are filling it with medical supplies and tablets to clean water along with other necessary goods. They also have access to some Honeywell employees in PR and they know the difficuties with fuel and trucks but they are on it. Their plane will leave on Thursday. They are very measured and thoughtful about their relief and are adding to it bit by bit as they get the system down.
These people are smart. I have been donating to them for over twenty years. They have a high bar that they reach and in terms of charitable organizations their overhead is super small. This is not a group that uses big drama to generate money and then goes to FEMA for reimbursement. That's NOT Operation USA. You can check on other groups who does that...not pretty.
Please donate to OPERATION USA . Let's make sure someone from every state donates so we can cover Puerto Rico.
