Despite all the pledges and volunteer work, the areas severely damaged by Harvey and Irma are still in need of basic necessities, as many of their residents were left with nothing. From homes, to vehicles, and even their loved ones, they were all lost when the hurricanes struck.

If there’s any silver lining from the calamities that happened, it has brought a lot of people united, and there have been millions of generous ones who did not hesitate to share their blessings to the less fortunate. The NBPA now joins them, and they are also hopeful that their act will pave the way for many others to also offer what they can for the victims.
