http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/message/index.php?id=187From Michael Moore's website:We have joined forces with S.O.S. Katrina, an organization that began as a temporary coalition of pre-existing community organizations that is doing amazing work with volunteers. They have become, with your help, a bright light offering immediate relief to the families who have lost everything.
<snip>
The Hurricane Katrina relief effort, supported by your donations of goods and cash began over a month ago in the greater New Orleans and Gulf Coast area. Together with your support, we hope to continue to meet the needs of hurricane survivors.
Thanks to the support and generosity that rolled in, the effort was more far-reaching and long-lasting than anyone ever expected.
