katrina donations
Aug. 30th, 2005 05:15 pmFYI:
folks, i'll play with the internets later to give some options, but if you're planning on giving donations, please Please PLEASE find an alternative to the american red cross.
they're shady and their politics suck.
ummm. the same generally goes for the salvation army, but i have no direct experience there.
something local, maybe, might be good.
granted, guidestar.org can't tell you too much about the implicit shadiness or crap politics of an organization, but they can tell you how the money is distributed.
