To whom it may concern,

The situation in Puerto Rico is worse than we imagined. There are still people without access to food, clean water, electricity, basic necessities, etc. It is literally one of the worst humanitarian crisis we've ever seen. The whole energy grid collapsed which is why we haven't been able to find out what has actually been going on over there. And based on what I have heard on the radio, the majority of Puerto Rico might be without electricity until March 2018. They need help.

It has been over a month since the hurricanes that devasted the island. And because of the Puerto Rican debt which they can't afford to pay, prices for things at the supermarkets have tripled which means that even tho many have access to these things everything is super expensive right now. A lot of the mail has gotten lost or most likely stolen because people are desperate. We're having trouble communicating with people who can't even charge their phones, have no phone signal and/or no internet access. Many have gotten sick from drinking contaminated water and pests like rats and mosquitos.

My family is well, but I had to send them some supplies like electric rackets to kill the mosquitos which were eating my grandma; and the package got opened, but luckily everything arrived to them.

I personally have RuneScape Clanmates who are struggling to afford food for their kids. And I sent them some money via Paypal, but I can only do so much by myself. I'm trying to get in contact with the Puerto Rico relief groups from California to see what I can help them with.

Many corporations have completed crowdfunding campaigns collecting donations and matching donations up to $250,000. Others like Office Depot still have open crowdfunding campaigns:

I need your help to spread the word out on how people can help:
