Over 210,000 people have registered for federal disaster assistance related to Hurricane Harvey. Donations can be brought to any of First Service Credit Union's seven community branches October 16 through November 17 during lobby operating hours. First Service is encouraging donations of: • Ready- • Protein pouches or pull-top cans of tuna, beef stew, chili and chicken • Snacks such as granola bars, breakfast bars, etc. • Peanut butter • Cleaning supplies such as mops, buckets, brooms, bleach, garbage bags and bug spray • Toiletries • Paper goods • Diapers "The Houston Food Bank will be serving those affected by Harvey for months to come," said David Bleazard, President and CEO of First Service Credit Union. "Our goal is to help fill the food bank, so none of our friends and neighbors in the area will have to worry about going without a meal as they work to rebuild their homes and lives."
