I just sent $50 to the Red Cross
I am emailing about 25 people on my list asking they do the same.

1. I don't trust the Red Cross or FEMA
I don't know who to donate to. This is so awful. :(

4. See if your city/town is organizing a delivery
of goods. My city is filling two semi trucks with food
and supplies. I just dropped off a box of food and a box
of clothes and supplies.

2. I gave to the Red Cross
I trust them. They have been helping people for many years.

5. Do they need it?
Is the Red Cross cash strapped?
After the 911 donation debacle, I'll wait until I see a clear flow of support to the victims b4 I donate.
The victims need support right nos - support that is available but poorly delivered (if at all). Pouring $$ into a hole isn't going to help anything but guilt right now.
