With three major storms posing threats to American families, the potential for a huge strain on services for storm victims continues.
WCPO 9News has teamed up with the local chapter of the American Red Cross to raise money for hurricane victims.
Already thousands of dollars have been raised though a phone bank held at WCPO studios this Friday.
Money raised will go to relief to people affected by hurricanes and tropical storms expected to hit the U.S. in the next few weeks.
