Please support the Hurricane Katrina relief efforts
Authored by: dan55304 on Sep 02, '05 09:34:37AM

Major disasters like this produce a huge waste of donated money and goods. They get too much too fast. It also has a terrible draining effect on other charities. So, if you give, please don't stop giving to your regular charities.

My very strong recommendation is to give through your local church to the relief effort if they are sending a team down. That gets the money to the people who need it and eliminates all the bureaucratic overhead. It is extremely cost efficient and gives the human touch to people who are suffering. It's a big blessing to those who receive help and a likewise blessing to those providing the help.
