Palm Beachers know what it means to come together during times of crisis. Accordingly, many of us are already thinking of the Bahamas. If you are looking to help out, here is what you need to know:

The Better Business Bureau encourages donors to make sure that they are offering support — particularly monetary donations — to experienced disaster relief organizations and avoid newly created charity groups that seem inexperienced or have unclear agendas and mission statements.
