Hi, Just to Clarify, “Mendo Litho has flyers”, we created an immediate need flyer directing evacuees to Fortunate Farms and Motel 6 for immediate needs. I understand that there are many resources for people’s future needs, I will be happy to work with anyone wanting to expand on the flyer we have to offer,-Amy
