Five things you can do to help immediately:

1. Duplicate what we are doing elsewhere in New York City,
in your city or town, on your college campus, at your
church, synagogue, mosque, or other religious institution,
via your fraternity or sorority, or via your local civic
or social organization.

2. Cut and paste the information in this eblast about

Items needed by survivors of the New Orleans catastrophe:
? Monetary donations
? Where you can ship non-perishable items
? Alternative media outlets
? Five things you can do to help immediately

and share this information, as a ONE SHEET, with folks
near and far, via email, or as a hand out at your event,
religious institution, and with your civic or social
organization.

3. Voice your opinion to local and national media, and to
elected officials, via letter, email, op ed article, or
phonecall, regarding the coverage of the New Orleans
catastrophe, as well as to the federal government's
ongoing handling of the situation.

4. Ask the hotel you frequent, such as the Marriott or
Holiday Inn, to give your hotel points to an individual or
family in need of a stay for a night, a few nights, or
longer, depending on how many points you have. Be sure to
get confirmation that your points have been applied in
that way. Encourage others to do the same. Also inquire if
your airline Frequent Flyer mileage can be used for hotel
stays as well.

Finally, either offer to pay for hotel rooms, or encourage
others to do so, including your place of employment or
worship or your organization.

5. Dare to care about other human beings, no matter their
race, gender, class, sexual orientation, religion,
geography, culture, clothing, hairstyle, or accent or
language. Like September 11th, the New Orleans catastrophe
is a harsh reminder that all life is precious, as is each
day we have on this earth.

AND REMEMBER that our attention and response to the New
Orleans catastrophe needs to happen in three
stages...DISASTER, RECOVERY, and REBUILDING. We need you
for all three stages.
