Another way to provide immediate help is to donate to the HISD Foundation here.
"Some 50 of the Houston schools have been flooded, and many families are staying in other less-damaged schools and children do not have extra clothes or school supplies," a SDUSD release said. "Many families have lost their home and most of their belongings."
