A number of North Texas groups are racing to get more emergency relief to people in Turkey and Syria after another destructive earthquake destroyed buildings and took at least three lives.
Turkish immigrants in North Texas are working non-stop to collect much needed supplies and Texas Baptist Men will send one of its members to the region tomorrow with what may be the most important live saving donation of all.
"They're on the street, more than 200,000 people right now, they're living there they try to survive," said Selvi. His goodwill unfortunately didn't prevent someone last week from stealing his pickup from the parking lot. There are 111 pallets carrying relief supplies scheduled to be shipped to Turkey on Tuesday.
