Spoke to Donice of WRAP.

They have two shelter facilities.

The WRAP building is at capacity with 140 evacuee population. They have 3 bathrooms and 3 showers and 2 fully operational kitchens.

The second shelter is an unmarked bldg. provided by a community member that is currently at capacity with 60 evacuees. Its location is: Varnado High School located next to our shelter across the street. They have a fully operational kitchen, 2 bathrooms and 1 shower.

2nd Harvest will not be delivering food until Tues. at the earliest (9/2). They are on the FEMA shelter list but FEMA will not provide any support or assistance "until there is a hurricane", so like 2nd Harvest, no assistance until Gustav is done. Red Cross is not helping.

They are currently in great need of Flashlights/Batteries because the smaller building doesn't have a generator. 2 weeks ago they received a good generator for the WRAP building so they are set there. They are also in great need of Toiletry Kits as many folks are showing up with "nothing, not a blanket or a toothbrush".

They are turning away a lot of folks that are just driving in without calling ahead and they "don't know where to go or what to do".

They have received evacuee's mostly from Orleans Parish, Slidell and Baton Rouge.

Donice was at the store purchasing food to feed evacuee's to cover until Tues. when I called and they have plenty of folks to help with cooking and shelter operations. They will be providing hot meals but no snacks.

During Katrina, they lost power for 6 weeks so they are preparing for no utilities for a lengthy period and she'll be able to get calls
