good way to donate to katrina relief

[za gophar]

Threadless are selling a special Regrowth: Katrina tee for just $10. And for each one they sell, they'll donate $20 to Hurricane relief! Yes, you read that right: you only pay $10 but you actually arrange a $20 donation *AND* you get a cool t-shirt in return! So order a few for friends and family too while you're at it. Every donation is doubled! NOTE: If your size is out of stock, just wait a day or two. Reprints are on their way!

I spent 6 hours at a disaster relief place sorting stuff so the refugees could come in and pick things up

Really a good way to help is donate physical things. It's quicker and more efficient - no middleman deciding HOW to spend your money, and you don't have to donate old things - I must have unloaded (yes, they let me drive a forklift) 4 or 5 huge crates of toys with price tags still on them.

But if you can't, I guess this is pretty neat. Thanks for linking

Sounds like a skam to me to get my 10$. Their are better ways to donate such as donating directly to red cross and stuff like that. That way u KNOW where your money is going.

Anyways, If I cud I wud donates hella alcohol for all those poor lost soles floating down Burbon Street. pfft I bet they having the time of their lives!

That is very commendable Squeezer, you've just made my book of 'Amazing people whom I respect'.
