White Tree Fund Appeals for Donations for Disaster Victims
- Xoanon @ 13:16 PST
Diane writes: Many Ringers are familiar with the White Tree Fund and its ongoing efforts to raise funds for tsunami relief. They have now broadened the scope of their appeal.
On August 29th, Hurricane Katrina slammed into the Northern Gulf Coast communities wreaking havoc, destruction and misery that we can barely imagine. The need for survivors is dire. Although food, water, medical aid and security are finally arriving to beleagured cities and communities, the need continues. The White Tree Fund is appealing for any aid that is possible to give. Please check on the TWTF's Hurricane Katrina page for information on how to donate via PayPal or directly to relief organizations.
