This sounds as though it is a very worthwhile proposition. I wish I could be there to help. However, for those of us who are across the country, it is not something that we can assist with easily. For that reason, I recommend that those that are on the west coast who would like to help out either contact the Salvation Army, Red Cross or one of your local churches or schools to find out how you can help out. I know several of the churches and schools in my area are helping organize fund drives to aid Katrina's victims. <br /> <br />Before sending your hard earned money to someone you don't know, research the charity you are sending it to so that you know how the money is being spent. The Salvation Army distributes a large portion of their donations to those in need (usually it's at least 80% of what they receive). A lot of other charities only donate a small portion to those in need (15 to 50%). <br /> <br />I want to extend a hearty thanks to all those who are doing their part in providing relief for those who have lost everything they have. George, for doing your part, Thank You! Here we go back to the top. Bump!
