Our community is doing a special fund raising effort to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The citizen that started this relief effort in our community wanted to have the money go to somewhere other than a large organization like the Red Cross. Another person had the idea to find a community similar in size (3,800 pop.) that was hit by Katrina where we could send the funds directly.
If you know of a small community, around 3,500 people, that was hit by Katrina, please let me know by commenting to this post.
Knowing exactly where the funds go, to see a community our size affected by such a disaster, and to give names and faces to the tragedy, not only will help us to better understand the situation, but will give our community a focus to our relief efforts.
Please, if you know of any community that is 3,500 population that would be willing to take a donation to help rebuild their community (i.e., the mayor and city or a responsible local non-profit that could show what the donations went towards), comment to this post as soon as possible!
Thank you!
