Over the past two weeks, many people in Louisiana have lost their homes and belongings from the flooding. Although I was not directly affected, many people that I know were. My mother's company went around giving supplies to flood victims in Denham Springs and Gonzales. I chose to go help out with carrying supplies to the flooded houses.

The neighborhoods around Denham Springs were covered with debris, broken cars, and furniture that had floated out of homes. Hundreds of people had made food stands where flood victims could get free food. Church groups and volunteers from around the country were helping people clean up. Most houses in the area were flooded, and some almost went underwater. It was a horrible event but it showed how helpful people are when natural disasters hit.
