I know that the rec.boats folks are good people.
Remember to do something to help. Whether it's $5, $10 or $10,000, anything
will help.

It would have to be some organization other than the Red Cross.
In Canada, they were turfed from the blood collection service after the
'Tainted Blood Scandal'.
Wouldn't be so bad if someone was actually punished for their deeds in
that mess.

For disaster relief, we prefer giving to The Salvation Army.

It only matters that we each do what we can one way or another.

Try this one, Don. It's a religion based organization, but don't let that stop
you. They do a lot of good.

The Red Cross burned us during 9-11 but have cleaned up their act since
then.

BTW: It looks like our friends up north are really pitching in with
supplies and money....thanks Canada. ;-)

With any luck, our gov't will do what it did for the Asian countries.
For every dollar donated, the gov't matched. It really made any donation
worthwhile.

I don't know who, or who isn't, helping us out, but I'm sure everyone that
can is doing what they can. So thanks to Canada and everyone else for the
help!

Here's one example of an organization with close ties to Louisiana who
will be raising money.
A large percentage of the Cajun population originated from the Acadian
Expulsion here in Nova Scotia.
