People are suffering. Regardless of location we can band together some relief.
Google has a link on their homepage to donate through Amazon.com . Amazon.com has collected US $2,735,536.22 in donations so far for The Red Cross Hurricane Relief Fund. This is Good. Click to add to the cup.
OR
Also, Strengthen The Good is hosting a matching funds campaign for Hurricane Relief. I'm thinking of donating through them instead. Strengthen the good is one of the most simple, hopeful microphilanthropy networking concepts I've run across recently.:
"STG is the nexus of a network of bloggers committed to raising awareness for small charities around the world. Every so often this space highlights a new “micro-charity”—a small, inspiring charity, one with a real face and where $1 makes a difference—and the bloggers in the network link to that post, sending traffic, and awareness, the charity’s way.
We are incorporated as a 501c3 charity, and your contributions are tax deductible."

I'm thinking of joining Strengthen the Good with the [livejournal.com profile] 10percentclub community page....so I can link/feed the STG posts on there as they come up...?

update: Amazon.com's collection is now up to $4,158,962.62.!!
update: Amazon.com's collection is now up to $6,532,050.00!!!
update: Amazon.com's collection is now up to $11,913,280.87!!

Final update: Amazon.com customers donated more than $12.5 million to the American Red Cross to provide disaster relief to those affected by Hurricane Katrina. :)!
