Mayor Bill White has established a relief fund to help fill unmet human needs for victims of Hurricane Ike in Houston, and Harris and Galveston Counties and other affected areas. The Fund is being administered by Albert Myers, senior vice president at Reliant Energy, with fundraising and distribution overseen by a special citizens advisory board. The Fund is now accepting donations and is assessing humanitarian needs. People are asked to mail donations to the above mailing address or donate online at the above website.

The Gulf Coast Ike Relief Fund is modeled after the successful Katrina/Rita Fund, which was also managed for the region by Myres.
