Re: Katrina Aftermath

I have to give a lot of credit to orginizations such as FEMA, American Red Cross, The Salvation Army, and too many others to name. They work incredibly hard in the face of such disaster and are really going to be a lifeline to the areas affected by this storm. If I could be up there with one of them I would in a heartbeat. I live in Port Charlotte and we were in the inner eyewall of hurricane Charley and those are the people who I consider the real heroes, them and all local emergency officals. They made sure we knew what to do during the storm as well as fed us and gave us water when none was available, and it was them that stayed in the area when national news stopped covering the story. At least one of these orginizations will have my financial support in lieu of this storm.
