3. Already did. I'm contacting the Houston school district later
to see if I can send school supplies to the kids coming in from New Orleans.

Whatever I do, I won't feel like it's enough.

5. That's a really fantastic idea.
Let us know what you find out, I'm sure plenty of us would be more than happy to donate school supplies as well.

4. Did already and please visit this website:
Design for a Cause has a number of t-shirt designs for sale, where the shopkeepers (myself included) have pledged all our profit to various nonprofits. In my case, the Red Cross. So this way you get a t-shirt commemorating New Orleans AND you get to make a small contribution.

6. We will donate what we would have spent at the state fair. Going to the
great MN get together doesn't seem very important or appealing anymore.

8. Already have.
And will again next payday and the paydays after that. My daughter and I will also be going to donate blood.

A friend of mine e-mailed with the old tales about Red Cross charging victims for assistance years ago. I remember reading about basic reforms a while back and looked for current information to rebut him, but couldn't find much. Do you have any info on that?
