Help for Houston service industry employees.

When I heard the 15-day shutdown announcement yesterday my heart sank. I've worked in the service industry in the past and know how difficult this will be with restaurants and bars shut down or severely limited in operation. I am concerned about people having the inability to pay rent, utilities, etc. No one should have to face that kind of financial emergency.

I threw together a website quickly last night in an attempt to do my part to assist folks who are negatively impacted.

Unfortunately I am not very good at web design so it is very basic. The purpose of this organization will be to match need-based recipients with folks who are able to contribute money, goods, and services. It is purely volunteer based and there will be no retention of contributed goods or money.

If you are in web design/IT and have some extra time on your hands I'd love to have your help with this project. The website links to two (soon to be three) Jotform pages and the initial task will be getting the word out to collect applicant & contributor info.

Please let me know if you can help out. I'd also love to hear your thoughts on how to make this project the best it can be.
