On the City of Flint website, the city notes that people can donate cases or pallets of water to the city via the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan, which will deliver the water to three community help centers: Greater Holy Temple, Asbury United Methodist and Bethel United Methodist. In addition to providing residents with clean bottled water, these help centers also provide free resources like lead-fighting food and produce that helps limit the absorption of lead, mental health services, water filters and replacement cartridges, and resource packets about the water crisis. The help centers support any Flint resident impacted by the crisis, and there are no eligibility criteria to receive services.
Over 120 non-profits, churches, grassroots organizations, individuals, and residents make up Flint Cares, a partnership that came out of the Flint Water Recovery Group to help residents achieve short-term and long-term solutions to the water crisis. Since Flint Cares is a network of groups working together to support residents, it doesn't directly take donations, but you can visit one of the dozens of organization pages directly to donate money or resources that will help support Flint's recovery efforts. The Flint Cares organizations do work ranging from water distribution, to advocating for disabled residents' needs, to working on policy changes for a future where all Flint residents have clean drinking water.
If you live in or near Flint and would like to volunteer your time to help residents access clean water, register with the Flint Red Cross to participate in water or water filter distribution events, educational events, disaster relief efforts, damage assessment efforts, or general administrative support.
Is it ok to not want to birth a special needs child for the sake of not wanting a special needs child?
I was looking an reddit a little while ago is there were any devil’s advocate subreddits and I could only find a few small ones the largest of which being r/devilsadvocate.
We're in a rented home with poor circulation, and I am going crazy trying to keep everything clean. Dust settles quickly, we get spiders every spring, and if I keep up with my job and have some semblance of sanity then my house is a disaster within one week.
I accept she/her, he/him, and they/them. But I don’t understand neopronouns? it is impractical. Pronouns exist to not make conversations about someone sound repetitive. And why would someone want to be called stuff like doll/kitten/baby/bat by everyone? Isn’t that just a nickname basically??
I feel like a lot of people have negative qualities about their personality but don't realize it so can't change it. I know almost all of my negative traits and realize I'm doing it most of the time but can't seem to change it. For example:
At age 24 I don't think I have much to look forward to in life besides struggling. I'm not good at anything enough to succeed. And theres millions of people like me. So for people who are like me who will probably never leave their own area in which they were born in.
I should probably be more clear with this now I don't feel like shit. I have an anxiety disorder. Its been getting worse and worse. My body keeps moving, but I don't feel in control. Its like I'm just some ghost watching my body being controlled by something. I had a friend over one time and I had my head on her lap as we where talking.
