    Also, areas are in desperate need of fans. Some areas have some tents that were brought in so some can stay on their property. But those without homes living in tents are using generators and could use fans to keep cool. So just a note to let you know this is what the local news is reporting as being needed. Tents, fans, diapers (sizes 4,5,6) and canned foods. All of the food banks are empty trying to keep everyone fed. Thank you for all you do in North Alabama. I know that your donations are appreciated in whatever town they ares sent to!
