If you want to have some choices in charities to help out the Katrina victims, look at Glenn's post here. You'd be amazed at the sheer number of charities available.
I just spent a large amount of cash upgrading the house I've purchased. Funds are low, and I won't see a paycheck until the end of September. I usually don't donate to relief efforts. But I'm going to this time.
I have a friend from New Orleans.

wholeheartedly agree. Donations of cash are needed here, RIGHT NOW. I sent mine to the Red Cross (www.redcross.org). It takes *less than 5 minutes* to send a credit card donation via their website. Do it now.
This is a bigger disaster than 9-11 - and that is not just hysterical hyperbole. It really is, in any way measurable. The situation in New Orleans is just apocalyptic.
forgot to add - I hope your friend in New Orleans is ok...

Actually, he's *from* New Orleans but is now a Houston cop--and I think he's in the Middle East with his army reserve unit! I'm hoping *his* extended family is ok.
