I know that the rec.boats folks are good people.

It would have to be some organization other than the Red Cross.
In Canada, they were turfed from the blood collection service after the
'Tainted Blood Scandal'.
Wouldn't be so bad if someone was actually punished for their deeds in
that mess.

Try this one, Don. It's a religion based organization, but don't let that
stop
you. They do a lot of good.

The Red Cross burned us during 9-11 but have cleaned up their act since
then.

BTW: It looks like our friends up north are really pitching in with
supplies and money....thanks Canada. ;-)


With any luck, our gov't will do what it did for the Asian countries.
For every dollar donated, the gov't matched. It really made any donation
worthwhile.
