PROVIDENCE PRECINCT
!! New Polling Location!!
The Pasquotank County Board of Elections voted unanimously to move the Providence precinct polling place from Northside Elementary to Pasquotank County High School located at 1064 Northside Rd. Voters will vote in the gym. This move was made due to the inadequate parking at Northside Elementary and the inability to isolate the young students from voters.

Locating Family Members

Cash is the most helpful donation. It allows professional, credible relief organizations to buy exactly what is needed most to help disaster victims. Cash donations minimize delays in collecting, packing, shipping and distributing goods and there is no added transportation cost.

Three ways to donate cash:
1) Contribute to the voluntary organization of your choice.
2) Contribute to one of the major non-profit organizations that are accepting cash donations to respond to this emergency, see http://www.interaction.org/crisis-list/earthquake-haiti.
3) Donate $10 to the Red Cross by simply texting "HAITI" to "90999." The donation will automatically be charged to your cell phone bill.

Donate Goods
Donated goods are discouraged at this point due to limited resources for transporting, distributing and receiving such supplies.

Businesses wishing to provide technical services or commodities must register with the Center for International Disaster Information is online at www.cidi.org.

This information is taken from guidance provided by FEMA, U.S Dept. of Homeland Security and the White House.
