Residents rise up to feed those in need after Harvey

First responders, county and state officials, businesses, residents, and the whole community is stepping up to the plate to help neighbors in need.

In addition to the many shelters and donation centers that have opened over the past 48 hours, many organizations, businesses and groups are looking in ways that they can help by providing food items, hot meals, supplies, and other necessities in Montgomery County.
