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

If you are so inclined, (no preaching here ) 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.

Here is a list of charities collecting for the hurricane victims:

http://www.habitat.org/
(Habitat for Humanity is an organization that builds homes for the poor throughout the world. I have always been comfortable donating to them and trusting where my money goes.)

http://www.secondharvest.org/
(second harvest is an excellent food bank organization with many years of good service to the homeless and hungry)

Sorry, I voted for Kang.

Thank you! Already sent my check to one of the lesser-known organizations on your list.

Yeah, that is why I came up with a rather broad based, eucemenical list. My sister was looking for the Humane Society, personally I like Habitat. But they all do good and necessary work.
