Hugh Hewitt, Glenn Reynolds (Instapundit) and aN.Z. Bear (Truth Laid Bear)are spearheading a blogburst — a Hurricane Katrina Relief Day Fundraiser — today, September 1, 2005, to help people devastated by hurricane Katrina. I am participating and, if you have a blog, would you do so too? Sign up at Truth Laid Bear. Glenn has a list of suggested charities here.
I am recommending you donate funds to The American Red Cross. I have seen with my own eyes how important and effective the Red Cross is in helping people; they are in town this week tending to evacuees.
Please check with your company; many will match your contribution dollar for dollar.

I normally donate blood to the Red Cross following any natural disaster but the tyranny of distance and time prevent that option now. Yesterday, I donated enough to them by my Visa card to finance a little dinghy. No, I’m not talking about Melinda. She’s no dinghy.
My prayers are with everyone who has suffered from Katrina’s onslaught.
