The same web site gives the address of our local Salvation Army for donations, and also lets you donate online. They claim 100% of the money will go to help in the relief efforts.

Problem with that last link is the paper wants you to log in if you hit their site too many times. You'd think they could turn that feature off for something like this. Oh well, it's free to log in. I suggest you still check them out even if you have to hassle with the log in.Comment

Here is the article if you can't get through their log in:
"A variety of government and private agencies are en route to assist victims of Hurricane Katrina. Federal officials urged people wanting to help not to head to the affected area unless directed by an agency. Rather, they asked people to make cash contributions to aid organizations.
FEMA listed the following agencies as needing cash to assist hurricane victims:
