We donated to the Salvation Army, but that doesn't sound like much for a hundred bucks. They can forget the brooms, etc., those houses are beyond cleaning. I can buy two cases of water at my local grocery for 12 bucks and I can feed a family of four for two days for 40 bucks (a lot less, really, but if we're talking convenience foods.) Hopefully the excess is going to stock the canteens, and I have seen many SA canteens in New Orleans at those staging areas outside the city.
