Relief groups seek relief from disaster onslaught

Over the whole great plains there has been many tornadoes and at least 500 people killed from the extreme weather. The Red Cross has been busy getting shelters ready and has reportedly used 41 million dollars to help people in need. Their is now 29 shelters in 22 states due to weather related disasters around the US.
Over the past week I think we had no choice but to help the people in need with 29 shelters open so far I expect those numbers to rise because of the strong storms moving into the east. The worst spot hit was Joplin, MO and I think we need to do whatever we can to get these people the help they need.
