I’m glad to hear that he and his family are fine. However, some of his close friends are without a home and all of their possessions now. Jimmy is trying to raise money to help them out. You can find out how to help them here on PhotoTips. There are a number of other organizations providing relief in the area through which you can also make general donations.
