The American Logistics Aid Network (ALAN), Feeding America, members and customers of the Warehouse Education and Research Council (WERC) are working to coordinate donations of warehousing and logistics resources in response to the projected impact of Hurricane Matthew on the East Coast.

ALAN has been in contact with emergency management and non-profit partners regarding their response. They are aware of planned cargo shipments to Port au Prince, and are seeking donations of transportation to and from warehouse space near Miami and New York (JFK).

If you are able to donate space and/or transportation please contact Kathy at [email protected] or submit your offer here: [url=http://alanaid.org/how-to-help/offerinkind/]http://alanaid.org/how-to-help/offerinkind/[/url]
