My sister from New Orleans and her husband and 6 year old have no home and no jobs. They have a hatchback filled with a few posessions. They need to move elsewhere and find new jobs.
Maybe it's just being selfish, but I would rather see donations go directly to our friends and family members. I know that my sister and her family will not be going to a temporary shelter and standing in a line for food. They have a place to stay (her husband's grandfather's house -- with 25 other people), but they need to build an entirely new life. The Red Cross will not help them do this.
Just my $.02, and I'll be in on whatever is decided on.
