Houston is slowly recovering from Hurricane Harvey. The water has receded and the trash is slowly being picked up. However, it will be a long time before this beautiful city is back to "normal".  The damage from Hurricane Harvey affected homes, businesses, schools, restaurants, hotels and theaters. Amid the complete devastation rose heroes from all walks of life. Strangers providing food for one another. Churches sending crews to clean out homes. Race, religion, politics, and status were all swept aside as we became #HoustonStrong.

It's been almost a month since Harvey hit the Texas coast, but there is still much to do. Here are a few ways you can still help.

Donations and volunteers

The following organizations not only need donations, but they could use volunteers:
Catholic Charities
Houston Food Bank
Houston Furniture Bank
