RE: Katrina
Guys
Yes this whole ordeal is really sad & heart wrenching.It is getting worse by th minute too,I just heard the news say 2-3 months to restore power in New Orleans!! This is the worse natural disaster I have seen in my time(9-11 was the worse of course-mankind induced).If I were still in the Coast Guard I would go down to help in heartbeat.And yes as mentioned above the Red Cross is already open for business and taking anything you can spare.I just left one of their dropoffs here with my trailer,I dropped off 8 boxes of misc. clothes,sheets,etc etc a,along with my monitary donation-I gave them a sizeable check from my business.That was the best feeling I have even had and I am just very glad I can help in such a big way.
Whatever we can give makes all the difference,no matter how small or great.Our donations-5 ,10,20,several thousand,etc etc.Whatever you can financially spare,they need the monitary contributions most importantly of course!! I was told just an hour ago when I arrived,after my donation Va Beach here has already taken in approx. 150,000 since 9am .That is just amazing to me ,its great when everyone comes together & gives to such a great cause
