Hurricane Katrina was the worst natural disaster in US history; hundreds of thousands of people have lost their homes in the Gulf Coast, many of those now stranded there are some of the poorest people in the region who were unable to evacuate. The expense of the damages done, the basic food, shelter and medical supplies that will be necessary is simply staggering. The American Red Cross is doing lots of major work in the wake of the hurricane and could absolutely use some donations:

I know it might be hard to find some cash at hand, but even small donations can help. Thanks for your time.
