[MR] Coordination of Atlantia's Katerina Relief efforts

[The Sheltons]

Thank you Lady Katharine.

I just want to reiterate a few points to those here on the Rose.  Each 
kingdom has been asked to have a coordinator.  This is in no way meant to 
discourage your generosity but instead is meant to provide an easy flow of 
information from the coordinators in Meridies and Gleann Abhann AND to 
provide more coordinated contact to them.  Fifteen folks in contact and not 
hundreds.

Lady Katharine will be coordinating information and donations of monies, 
goods, etc that will be sent directly to our SCA brethren.

Those who have plans to fund raise or donate directly to the Red Cross or 
other charities should by all means do so.  If you would send a courtesy 
notice to Lady Katharine, I would very much appreciate it.

Again, thank you for your compassion and continued support of those in need,

Anne le Coeur
Seneschal-Atlantia
