Hurricane Ida is the fifth largest hurricane to hit US main land in recorded history. SSSIO has initiated a national supplies drive to help our brothers and sisters suffering the aftermath of Hurricane Ida.
On the website, we have set up 3 events. Each event is aimed at serving one or two communities.
