« Some words for August | Main | RON for Katrina »

September 01, 2005

It’s pretty impossible to come up with a silly/funny/arty blog post with all that’s happening in Louisiana right now... Such a terrible tragedy, so many people and families just trying to hang on in the midst of so much death and devastation. I have been glued to the radio and CNN for the last two days but I can’t do it anymore. I am overwhelmed.

I sometimes feel helpless in the face of such a tragedy but two emails I received this morning reminded me that there are concrete ways to help:

The Red Cross can use donations
Go to The American Red Cross online or call 1-800 HELP NOW (1-800-435-7669.)

Feed The Children
1-800-525-7575

and here is a culture-specific Katrina fund from American Association of Museums
