A Mobile couple is asking for your help, to make Christmas merry for Hurricane Ike victims in Texas who lost their homes.
They are driving a truck full of Christmas decorations to Texas on Friday. But they still need more decorations.

Eye of the Storm Relief is holding what is being called a "From Hurricanes To Candy Canes" drive.

News 5's Devon Walsh went around town where the group is getting ready to load the truck.

If you would like to help with the "From Hurricanes To Candy CaneS" drive, you can drop off Christmas decorations at Cellular South locations in Mobile and Baldwin Counties by Friday at 5 p.m.

Monetary donations are needed for gas and truck expenses, as well. You can make those donations on the organizations website,
