The victims of hurricane Katrina need the world's help.

If you are so inclined and you have the means to donate, here is a list of charities collecting for the victims. You might want to take a collection from your friends or colleagues, or at the club tonight.

Good on you for posting this info. Looks like quite a few people are visiting your post. I hope that translates into some extra donations that these organisations wouldn't otherwise have received if you hadnt posted their details.
