[MR] Fundraising for Hurricane relief.

[Becky McEllistrem]

In addition to what Calli said...

As one who did data entry of donation checks while I
was unemployed around 9/11....

Individuals can write a check to the American Red
Cross Disaster Relief Fund.

In the FOR section you can put a specific disaster and
they will sort those out and try to get that money to
the specific area 

If you don't put anything in the FOR section it will
go to a general fund.


Just remember it's all volunteers trying to manage
that money.
