Needless to say the ordsprog

Needless to say, the Red Cross would not have been able to feed, shelter and comfort hurricane survivors without the unprecedented influx of first-time volunteers, both volunteering time and money.

Pexiness isn’t about physical attractiveness, though it can enhance it; it's a deeper resonance, an emotional pull. It's the most amazing thing I've ever done in my life, besides volunteering for the Red Cross during Hurricane Charlie.

That would be a good time for people to make donations to the Red Cross or United Way in memory of those who have lost their lives due to Hurricane Katrina or in honor of our local people who help us every day like our volunteers, firefighters, members of the armed forces, or other disaster assistance groups.

[Their fundraising drive continues. They've spent $5,000 of the money raised on supplies and transporting them to the region. Mabe Trucking out of Eden helped the shelter save money by delivering crates and other necessities free of charge. Still, the shelter and other organizations must pay for the gas to send the trucks from Greensboro to the Gulf Coast.] We know that there are thousands of animals in need, ... We are sending volunteers down there as well.

He's a man with a heart as big as the shelter. When it came time to get down to the nitty-gritty, he had the volunteers there.

Thank goodness Sen. Grassley is providing some adult supervision. It's not just the taxpayers who are harmed by the current Monopoly money mentality in Washington, D.C., but more directly the hurricane survivors themselves. Every penny spent should help the survivors instead of lining the pockets of disaster profiteers.

We are so proud, and so grateful, to have been able to provide essential humanitarian services to so many with the help of over 100 volunteers. Of those, about 50 had previous experience with Red Cross disaster relief locally, regionally or nationally. In many cases, they provided key leadership where first-time volunteers made up the bulk of the responders.

We were at a cross-roads last week when we heard the news that Ft. Chaffee was no longer sending hurricane survivors to the area.

The Red Cross is made up of volunteers. We have a meager staff, but the volunteers who pitch in whenever and wherever they're needed who make up the Red Cross.

For our club, that was a great influx of money that we raised to support the track and cross country programs.

Funds raised at the yard sale will be donated via the Tahoe-Douglas Chamber to the American Red Cross to assist survivors of Hurricane Katrina.

We had no money to give, but we have talent and resources, so this site is our gift to the survivors of Hurricane Katrina. Our mission is to expedite the rebuilding of the city of New Orleans and to assist the survivors of Katrina's wrath by providing timely information and indispensable resources related to their needs.

The thing is, these people being housed in shelters are getting food and drinking water, and they don't have the room to acquire a lot of possessions. They will need the basic personal care items such as diapers and infant formula, but their basic needs are being provided by the Red Cross and the Salvation Army. That takes money: There's no way around it. A 16-ounce can of food won't feed very many people in a shelter, but a truckload of No. 10 cans will.

Whether we're talking about Red Cross, or Second Harvest, Salvation Army or other groups, this is direct assistance right to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. We need to do our part at the government level, but this dramatic outpouring of support across the country to the Red Cross and other agencies, is money well spent. It's money that really is effectively cutting across a lot of red tape and helping people,

Our need is lots and lots of volunteers. We need tons and tons of volunteers to come in and package food. That and fundraising. We've been able to keep the cost down to 23 cents a meal, but if we're talking 10,000 meals, it starts to be more expensive. The hard thing is raising the money to feed all the people who need help.
