Scotty’s American Mini Storage in Port Arthur, Texas, is collecting donations to benefit victims affected by the floods last month in Southeast Texas. The initiative was launched by property managers Angel and Mark Kreie. The couple is hoping to fill a 10-foot-by-10-foot storage unit with clothing, food and furniture donations by May 31, according to the source. The drive will also benefit the Southeast Texas Food Bank.

Donations can be made at 8989 Memorial Blvd., Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

“We’ve heard so many who need help coming through here. People from churches and our friends told us,” Mark Kreie said.

The storage facility will also host a community event on April 22, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., that will include an auction, children’s activities, food, a raffle and a “Mini Trade Days Vendor Market” featuring pop-up tents. “It will be a great time to donate, and there will be fun activities that day,” Angel Kreie said.

Scotty’s American Mini Storage is a part of Scotty’s Thrift Storage, which operates 11 facilities in Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas.
