There are 200,000,000 of us only and only about 2 million of them. If
you haven't already thought about what you can do for the victims of
Katrina, take a few minutes and think through it. A little bit of help
from everyone will go a very long way.

People are getting sick, have injuries, and need help. There are many
that don't even have dry clothing, just the torn, wet rags they
escaped with. Anything you can do will help someone that is at this
moment, in despair.

Lots of people talk but it feels much better for everyone if you do. So
take a moment, please, and think about what you can do.
