Locals Organizing Donations For Struggling Island Of Puerto Rico

EVERYONE THERE IS NO WATER.
THAT WAS DAVID BEGNAUD
REPORTING.
MANY OF DOING WHAT THEY CAN TO
HELP THE PEOPLE IN PUERTO RICO
FROM FOOD AND SUPPLIES TO CASH
DONATIONS.
IT'S ALL NEEDED.
Reporter: THE PUERTO RICAN
BAND PLAYS.
THE MOOD IS NOT OF SELL BRAGS
BUT MORE OF SERVICE.
TURNOUT IS INCREDIBLE.
Reporter: MARIO IS A MEMBER
OF THE PUERTO RICAN COUNCIL
THAT INCLUDES EIGHT OTHER
ORGANIZATIONS IN SOUTH FLORIDA.
HE IS ONE OF HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE
WITH FAMILY ON THE ISLAND CUT
OFF FROM COMMUNICATION.
MY FATHER HAD A BRIEF MOMENT
TO USE HIS CELL PHONE.
HE SAID HE HAD HEARTED PROBLEMS
AND SOMEONE WAS TAKING HIM TO
THE HOSPITAL.
TODAY I WAS IN THE BANK.
BY LUCK MICAH SIN WAS WALKING
DOWN THE STREET AND FOUND A
SPOT WHERE SHE FOUND SOME WI-
FI.
SHE STARTED RECEIVING MESSAGES.
SHE STARTED SENDING MESSAGES.
I LOST IT.
YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG UNTIL
YOU DEAL WITH SOMETHING LIKE
THIS.
Reporter: HIS STORY IS
SIMILAR TO MANY OTHERS WE
HEARD.
WITH MOST OF THE ISLAND DAMAGED
OR DESTROYED, THEY WILL NEED
HELP.
THE SOUTH FLORIDA COMMUNITY HAS
MOBILIZED AND COLLECTED ENOUGH
ESSENTIALS TO FILL TWO
CONTAINERS.
THEY NEED MORE CONTAINERS TO
SHIP ITEMS TO THE ISLAND ON A
CONSISTENT BASIS.
I AM NOT A WEALTHY PERSON.
ANYTHING THAT CAN HELP IS GOOD.
Reporter: MARIO HOPES YOU
WILL FIND IT IN YOUR HEART TO
DONATE BUT YOU REMEMBER
SOMETHING MORE POWERFUL.
IF YOU HAVE A LOVED ONE
CLOSE TO YOU -- YOU NEVER KNOW
WHEN YOU CAN'T TALK TO THEM
AGAIN.
Reporter: IF YOU ARE
INTERESTED IN DONATING, FIND A
DONATION SPOT AND A DROP OFF
POINT IN MIAMI DADE AND BROWARD
COUNTIES.
