Raising money for hurricane relief

Plants for Puerto Rico
When Sarah Humphrey of Huntington, New York, wanted to help people affected by 2017's Hurricane Maria, she formed a Thrivent Action Team and joined with her friend Karen Maresco to organize a plant sale. The pair collected orders, picked up seedlings from local growers, and raised nearly $2,000, which paid for supplies taken to Puerto Rico on a mission trip.
