I am so DEEPLY touched by the LOVE shown for each other concerning the Snow and Black Ice in Atlanta. Yall know that’s my second home. I am addicted to the Message Board SnowedOutAtlanta on Facebook. I have been reading for hours. I know this post my be boring and long for some… but if you have a few minutes to read it…. I PROMISE YOU WILL SEE GOD. I PROMISE.. I’m in tears reading so many of these messages. I just LOVE THE LORD SO MUCH. Every day we get closer and closer. He amazes me, he excites my heart, he makes me smile. I just LOVE HIM. Okay here it is..
I have a friend that has been stranded at work for the past 36 hrs. She is a security officer at the GA tech building on 14th street by IKEA. she is need of food. I have tried calling several restaurants in the area and no one is answering. She can’t leave her building unsecured and she probably won’t get relief until maybe tomorrow but she is not sure. She has Bergen without food for quite some time now. Is there anyone that can help?

Calavino Donati Tery, not trying to be rude does not make you less rude.
-
Tery Wilson I hope not and she still securing the bldg
-
Lisa Hall Head Tanisha Howard: There was someone on another thread that said they were very near GT (or perhaps a student on campus) and they could get to people in that area. Click on the magnifying glass in the top right and type in Ga Tech (I believe that’s how it was abbreviated in the post). Hope that helps -
Tery Wilson Im just a straight-forward person who just so happens to be a logical thinker. I was not trying to be rude. I also offered help to her after her friend said the other obsticles she was facing. And I apologized
-
Kat-y Royale Just spoke with her! We’ve got water and pizza on the way! ETA ~15 mins. She’s got a survival pack so I think she’s got blankets and other essential gear.
-
Ashley Leach I’ll ask some students I know that attend GT. -
Tery Wilson Thats just awesome! Glad she’s ok now
-
Tanisha Howard Yeah Tery Wilson apparently they build cars, there are medical supplies, and other “important”things in the building that can’t be left unattended. I don’t know…I just couldn’t leave my friend in that situation
-
Kat-y Royale We’ve got this covered! Thanks guys!!!
-
Tanisha Howard Ashley Leach she has been helped
-
Ashley Leach Ok good, thank you
-
Kat-y Royale Trey, thank you SO Much for your offer! As someone who has to be Gluten-free, as much as I would appreciate the offer of pizza, I wouldn’t actually be able to eat it! SO thank you for offering an alternative if she needed something other than pizza!
-
Kimberly Baker thats awesome…. so now we should delete all of this so those who still need help will rise to the top of the list…maybe? just sayin…. YAY for the helpers!
-
Carol Tomaras FYI, we may be going through all of this again the week of Feb 8 or so. according to TV WALB….please be prepared everyone. Just in case. -
Amy Williams Awesome everyone!! -
Aviva Vuvuzela Are we sure she doesn’t need anything else?
-
Kelly Shelton Evans FYI there are several buildings that do research that are on campus but not exactly part of campus. I think 575 is one of those buildings. Tell Tara she’s doing a great job! If she needs more help just post. GT c/o 1997 -
Kat-y Royale I spoke with her on the phone. She says as long as relief shows up in the morning all she needs is food. She said she had a couple bottles of water, but he offered to run by Kroger to grab a gallon just in case! Will update when the food and water has been delivered
-
Tanisha Howard Kelly Shelton Evans yes that’s it!! Yes I’m going to delete the post…you guys have been so helpful and I truly appreciate you all! You too Tery Wilson lol!!

Autumn Martin Page Tanisha Howard, I tagged you in another comment. I found the list of people by name and area and with numbers to contact them. I am not familiar with the area she is in so if you want to look at it and see. There are a lot of people listed!!! More people have posted assistance as well! Sure do hope you get something to her! Let me know if I can help in any other way!!!! -
Kat-y Royale She’s getting lots of food, apparently! LOL Not sure what Chris brought her! But at least she won’t run out of food
-
Tanisha Howard She actually just called again and said 2 ppl came so whoever else brought her food thank you!!!!
-
Kat-y Royale Autumn, please send me to that link/comment, thank you!
-
Tanisha Howard Autumn Martin Page someone has helped…thank you!
-
Autumn Martin Page Here is the link to the page with a lot of people listed and how they can help! …. Here is a page to post ONLY what you are able to help with. This group is so clustered with people giving and asking that it is confusing. Here people can go and see listed what is available to them! From individuals helping to any help!https://www.facebook.com/groups/481796348616836/
-
Kat-y Royale My friend said he could help others in the area if needed, so hoping to get a link to that post you were referring to Autumn
-
Kat-y Royale Ooh, so it doesn’t list people that actually need help still?
-
Kat-y Royale My friend was the second person who brought her food. Chris was sneaky! Thankfully she’ll have plenty to eat tonight, and after not eating for 32+ hrs, I’m sure she can use the food!!
-
Chris Davy Yes its done, and hopefully she can fill up. She looked so tired. Anyone else need help in the area, let me know.
-
Kat-y Royale The eagle has landed!!!
-
Autumn Martin Page No it is just a list of people who can help and how they can help… food, bed, tow, phone calls, money. That way people in need can go and just look through for the assistance they are needing instead of having to search for help
-
Tanisha Howard Ooohhhh I thought Chris was the pizza guy…lol!
-
Kimberly Baker there is a map for finding people who need help in the post from admin above^^^^ in the “READ THIS FIRST” post pinned to the top of this page
