Reba and Babies Hurricane Relief

As most know, on September 19th one of the strongest recorded storms to ever make landfall wreaked havoc on Puerto Rico. What fewer people know is that 7 miles off the East Coast of Puerto Rico, the tiny island of Vieques got hit first, taking the brunt of the storm.
For the past 9 years, Rebekah has called this tiny island home-- working in the local restaurants, hotels and shops, and giving tours of the local bioluminescent bay. Miraculously, they were able to pack one dufflebag each and make their way back to North Carolina to stay with family in the interim. Without the tourist industry, and with the future of the island being unknown, The Andersons are being forced to start over. No doubt that Rebekah and her two children, and step-child have a solid, loving support system. But with so much up in the air, any and all support would make a world of difference.
