I understand Greta van Susteren and the Church of Scientology are offering free e-meter readings and engram audits for all evacuees, plus half-price on copies of Dianetics as well.

Sent $100 to ABSC to help with their three food kitchens.

OK everybody, right now there are three kinds of people. Those in need, those helping the ones in need and we who are too far away but are willing to support the first two.

Anybody else is not worth talking about right now.

OK, step right up and give to your favorite charity.

I heard they were also looking for kid-friendly DVD's.
Does anyone know about this, and if so, where to send them?

The Knights of Columbus Supreme Council has announced the largest disaster relief effort in its history. The Order has pledged a minimum of $2.5 million in financial assistance and will match any funds beyond that donated to the Knights of Columbus Katrina Relief Fund during the 60 days following Sept. 2.

One hundred percent of contributions will go directly to hurricane relief, and all donations to Knights of Columbus Charities are tax-deductible (tax creditable in Canada).

IOCC on the list.

IOCC’s network of trained emergency responders, led by Fr. David Kossey, will dispatch Fr. Angelo Pappas, a qualified emergency “first responder,” to the region to work with private and government agencies in order to identify the most urgent needs of those affected and to help meet those needs.

“Right now, the most critical need is for cash contributions to enable IOCC to respond quickly to needs as they emerge,” Fr. Kossey said. “I have been heartened by the eagerness of our local churches to set up shelters and provide food and keep people as comfortable as possible during this disaster.”

Each state  each county, each town of the USA must develop a committee to receive refugees as they arrive in local airports, bus stops, ports, whatever, who can take their names and coordinate them with a local family to stay with. With the support of local business, churches and organization, within six months these American citizens need to be found their own decent  home and jobs. This way they will have made local contacts and friend within the local communities and will not become isolated. And will have some support in making their way in a brand new environment. In instances, completely different from where they came from. The time is now to develope this system of networking.

This what we in the northern states should be preparing for. These people are not going to be able to return home, we do not want refuge camps anywhere in America, that will only be even worse.

Perhaps this is a test for America to see if she is indeed worthy of caring the torch of freedom. Let freedom ring, make voluntarisms work! Lets roll!
